Abstract:

An indirect blood pressure measuring device and method were evolved for human use. This system is capable of providing 30 measurements each of systolic and diastolic pressures per minute. The system utilizes two brachial blood pressure cuffs (one on each arm) and fully automatic cycling for each pressure measurement. The main advantages of this system are:

1.minimum circulatory impedance during each measurement;

2.the capability of measuring rapid blood pressure transients; and

3.the complete avoidance of all the inherent risks of intra-arterial catheterization.
