ELECTRONIC MANOMETER FOR APPROPRIATELY ADJUSTING INTERNAL PRESSURE OF CUFF AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

摘要

An electronic manometer detects pressure within a cuff at which an amplitude of change in a volume of an artery of a measurement subject becomes a maximum by detecting volume of an artery of a measurement subject while superimposing a vibration of high frequency during a period of raising the pressure to apply on the cuff or during a period of lowering after raising to greater than or equal to a systolic blood pressure of the measurement subject. The electronic manometer controls the pressure to apply on the cuff so that the volume of the artery of the measurement subject becomes constant, and measures the blood pressure of the measurement subject from an increased or decreased value of the pressure to apply.
