Auto-focusing blood pressure monitor intended for "difficult" arms in order to make accurate and reliable measurements both at a normal arm and an arm with unusual formations, on which it has up to now been difficult to measure the blood pressure. The cuff has a cover and a bladder positioned therein. The bladder has two longitudinal chambers. A reinforcement extends along a valley between the chambers and operates as a tension ring, which maintains the division of the bladder in two chambers also at high internal pressure in the bladder. During application to a "difficult" arm, the reinforcement will be displaced towards the portion of the arm in which the problems are smallest while maintaining the division into two elliptical chambers. The elliptical chambers focus the pressure at the artery positioned there below so that a reliable measurement can be obtained. |
