CARDIOVASCULAR MONITORING DEVICE

摘要

The present invention is related to a cardiovascular monitoring device including an inflatable cuff for surrounding a limb of a user, at least a first and a second electrodes, a controlling circuitry with a processor accommodated in a housing, and a display element. The controlling circuitry is configured to perform a blood pressure measurement through controlling a pressure inside the inflatable cuff, and perform an electrocardiogram measurement by using the electrodes. The processor is also configured to provide a diastolic blood pressure and a systolic blood pressure when the blood pressure measurement is performed, and to provide a heart rhythm information when the electrocardiogram measurement is performed. Further, for achieving a better and more stable contact between the electrodes and the user's skin, the present invention provides an improved structure with electrodes arranged thereon based on the conventional blood pressure monitor.

主权项

1. A cardiovascular monitoring device, comprising:
an inflatable cuff, for surrounding a limb of a user; at least a first and a second electrodes, at least one of which is implemented as a dry electrode; a housing, for being carried by the cuff; a control circuitry with a processor, accommodated in the housing, wherein
the control circuitry is configured to perform a blood pressure measurement through controlling a pressure inside the cuff, and perform an electrocardiogram measurement by using the electrodes; andthe processor is configured to provide a diastolic blood pressure and a systolic blood pressure when the blood pressure measurement is performed, and to provide a heart rhythm information when the electrocardiogram measurement is performed; and a display element, for showing the diastolic and systolic blood pressures and the heart rhythm information, wherein the first and the second electrodes are configured to respectively locate on opposite contactable surfaces of a portion of the device, so as to achieve a simultaneous contact of the first and the second electrodes with different portions of the user's skin when the cuff with the housing is surrounding the limb and one of the electrodes has a force applied thereon.
