Embodiment Construction

[0029] FIG. 1 shows a blood pressure measuring device 10 . The blood pressure measuring device 10 includes a main unit in a housing. A compression band 16 is connected to the housing via a hose 17 . The compression strap is intended to encircle the user's upper arm. The blood pressure measuring device unit operates in a manner known in the art, specifically in that it inflates and then slowly lowers the pressure in the compression band while measuring the pressure in the compression band. Blood pressure can be determined by an oscillometric method based on this pressure signal. The device is provided with a display 14 for providing various measurement data and user commands. Furthermore, the device is provided with a plurality of operating buttons, such as a memory button 18 (see FIG. 3 ) for displaying stored results.

[0030] According to FIG. 2 , the blood pressure measuring device 10 includes a computing unit 13 which is able to control the operation of the device 10 ....

Abstract

A blood pressure self-monitoring device includes an alarm generator to remind the patient to carry out blood pressure measurements according to a predetermined schedule. The device performs a specific phase of measuring blood pressure according to a clinically validated criterion, and calculates an accurate blood pressure reading on the basis of plural measurement values. The device also has a therapeutic decision mode, which can monitor blood pressure for assessing the effect of antihypertensive drug treatment. In the extended mode, the alarm generator works according to a predetermined daily measurement to remind the patient to take a blood pressure measurement following drug intake. Also during the treatment phase, the antihypertensive drug may affect the probability of irregular heartbeat, which can be a reference index for assessing the types and doses of treated antihypertensive drug. The device can also use a selectable switch to operate as a regular home blood pressure monitor.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a blood pressure measuring device, and a method of operating a blood pressure measuring device. Background technique [0002] Nowadays, blood pressure measuring devices for home self-monitoring of blood pressure have been commonly used. As far as the diagnosis of hypertension is concerned, it is much easier for patients to confirm their blood pressure at home than to go to the hospital or see a doctor. Home measurements also allow multiple blood pressure measurements to be obtained. [0003] Self-monitoring of blood pressure at home is more effective and convenient with recommended and approved blood pressure measurement devices than traditional measurement methods. Home blood pressure measurement can avoid common "white-coat hypertension," or "effects," that could lead to overdose or inappropriate medication. Recent clinical reports also show that home blood pressure measurement (home BP) has high predictive ability and rel...
