Electronic blood pressure monitor

摘要

An electronic blood pressure monitor has a main body provided with an arm insertion portion having a throughhole and provided with a cylindrical cuff, that is provided with an elbow rest receiving an elbow of an arm inserted through and thus placed outside the arm insertion portion. The elbow rest is rotatably supported at a lower portion of a rear side of the main body by a support shaft to be positionally changeable between elbow supporting and unused positions and at the unused position it is accommodated by the main body upper than the support shaft. The elbow rest includes a proximal support, a distal support and an elbow support. When blood pressure is measured the elbow rest is set to take the elbow supporting position to receive an elbow placed outside the arm insertion portion. An advantage of a home blood pressure monitor can be maintained and accurate blood pressure measurement can also be obtained.
