Method of automated blood pressure detection
TL;DR: In this article, a pressure cuff on the patient is inflated to a predetermined pressure above systolic, and then is deflated incrementally. At each decrement, oscillatory complexes are detected, and respective peaks are compared and evaluated as "true" complexes if they are within certain size matching criteria.
Patent
Adaptive incremental blood pressure monitor
Rush W. Hood,Richard Medero +1 more
TL;DR: An adaptive monitor and method for rapidly determining blood pressure, selects an initial cuff pressure to be applied to an artery of the test subject and then measures the amplitude of pressure pulses caused by the pumping of blood by the subject's heart.
Patent
Automated diastolic blood pressure monitor with data enhancement
TL;DR: In this article, a blood pressure cuff is applied about a subject's artery, and inflated above the systolic level thus fully occluding the artery for a full heart cycle.
Patent
Automated mean arterial blood pressure monitor with data enhancement
TL;DR: In this paper, a blood pressure cuff is applied about a subject's artery, and inflated above the systolic level thus fully occluding the artery for a full heart cycle.
Patent
Oscillometric blood pressure monitor employing non-uniform pressure decrementing steps
TL;DR: In this paper, the deflation of the inflatable and deflatable cuff worn by a subject during automatic sphygmomanometric measurement is accomplished in unequal size decrements and principally in larger steps than 7 Torr.
