This has not previously been studied. The primary aim of this study was to assess the perceived discomfort of routine blood pressure (BP) measurement in children and adolescents, and thereby inform the procedure's suitability for potential systematic screening. Secondly, we aimed to examine whether sex, age, and previous experience with blood pressure measurement were associated with the perceived discomfort. This cross\u2010sectional study enrolled Danish children aged 5\u201317 years attending the pediatric outpatient clinic of G\u00f8dstrup Hospital between the first of June and the 30th of August 2025. Each child underwent oscillometric BP measurement and rated their discomfort using the Wong\u2010Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale. The distribution of the reported scores was assessed through descriptive statistics. Odinal logistic regression was used to examine the association between discomfort and sex, age and prior experience with blood pressure measurement. In total, 127 children and adolescents (63 boys, 64 girls) were enrolled in this study. WBS scores were distributed as follows: 63% \u201cNo Hurt\u201d, 28% \u201cHurts a Little Bit\u201d, and 9% across the remaining categories; no child reported \u201cHurts Worst\u201d. Regression models revealed non\u2010significant associations with WBS\u2010score for age, sex and prior experience with blood pressure measurement. In conclusion, oscillometric BP measurement with adaptive cuff inflation was well\u2010tolerated in this pediatric cohort. This finding supports the feasibility and acceptability of routine oscillometric blood pressure measurement, highlighting its suitability for potential systematic screening programs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jch.70307","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,17]],"date-time":"2026-06-17T03:55:56Z","timestamp":1781668556000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Minimal Perceived Discomfort During Oscillometric Blood Pressure Measurement in Children: A Cross\u2010Sectional Study With Implications for Systematic Screening"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"28","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4440-1175","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lise Fischer","family":"Mikkelsen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine G\u00f8dstrup Hospital  G\u00f8dstrup Denmark"},{"name":"NIDO Centre For Research and Education G\u00f8dstrup Hospital  Herning Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Medicine Aarhus University  Aarhus Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ann\u2010Kristine Mand\u00f8e","family":"Svendsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine G\u00f8dstrup Hospital  G\u00f8dstrup Denmark"},{"name":"NIDO Centre For Research and Education G\u00f8dstrup Hospital  Herning Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Medicine Aarhus University  Aarhus Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sofie","family":"Axelgaard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine G\u00f8dstrup Hospital  G\u00f8dstrup Denmark"},{"name":"NIDO Centre For Research and Education G\u00f8dstrup Hospital  Herning Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Medicine Aarhus University  Aarhus Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Malene Klinkby","family":"Lind","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine G\u00f8dstrup Hospital  G\u00f8dstrup Denmark"},{"name":"NIDO Centre For Research and Education G\u00f8dstrup Hospital  Herning Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Malene","family":"N\u00f8rskov","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine G\u00f8dstrup Hospital  G\u00f8dstrup Denmark"},{"name":"NIDO Centre For Research and Education G\u00f8dstrup Hospital  Herning Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christina","family":"Ellervik","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Clinical Biochemistry Zealand University Hospital  K\u00f8ge Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Medicine Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences University of Copenhagen  Copenhagen Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Laboratory Medicine Boston Children's Hospital  Boston Massachusetts USA"},{"name":"Department of Pathology Harvard Medical School  Boston Massachusetts USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Luise","family":"Borch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine G\u00f8dstrup Hospital  G\u00f8dstrup Denmark"},{"name":"NIDO Centre For Research and Education G\u00f8dstrup Hospital  Herning Denmark"},{"name":"Department of Clinical Medicine Aarhus University  Aarhus Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamapediatrics.2024.1543"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.2025.14405"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1751\u20107176.2011.00496.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.298.8.874"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.2017\u20101904"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/eurheartj\/ehac328"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.2020.20122"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_1","first-page":"281","article-title":"Principles and Practice of Mass Screening for Disease","volume":"65","author":"Wilson J.
