| 摘要 |
The blood pressure monitor (10) comprises an artery pressing section which locally presses an artery of the extremities or fingers at an arbitrarily variable pressing force, a vibration sensor (22) detecting a vibration of the artery at the pressed point or points on a peripheral side thereof, a mounting mechanism (26) which positions the artery pressing section and the vibration sensor (22) on the artery, a blood pressure determination section which determines the maximum and minimum pressures based on various pressing force values applied by the above-mentioned artery pressing section and signals detected by the vibration sensor (22) at these various pressing force values, guides (34) which are provided on each side of the vibration sensor (22) and guide the vibration sensor (22) to the artery by being located on the both sides of the artery, and a peripheral side pressing section which presses the artery on the peripheral side from the vibration sensor (22).The blood pressure monitor (10) does not impart an unpleasant or disagreeable feeling to the subject.
