PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily measure the hardness of an artery from on a skin. SOLUTION: A hemodynamometer means 50 determines a blood pressure value BP based on the pressure of the artery of a living body by a cuff 10, a pulse pressure determining means 54 determines a pulse pressure PM from the value BP measured by the means 50 and an artery hardness index determining means 56 determines a ratio of the pulse pressure PM determined by the means 54 and an average blood pressure value BPMEAN measured by the means 50 as an artery hardness index Ia. Thus, the hardness of the artery can easily be measured from on the skin.
