Blood pressure measurement device and method of blood pressure measurement

Abstract

The invention discloses a blood pressure measurement device and a method of blood pressure measurement. The blood pressure measurement device comprises a case, a first electrode and a stress sensor. The case includes a first surface and a second surface. The first electrode is disposed on the first surface, and the stress sensor is disposed on the second surface. The blood pressure measurement device is operated on a part of a body of a user. The part of the body has a blood vessel inside. Upon measurement of the blood pressure, the first electrode, the stress sensor and the blood vessel at least partially overlap in one projection orientation. Therefore, the stress sensor is able to be pressed on the part of the body when the user touches the first electrode. A method of blood pressure measurement is also disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a blood pressure measuring device and a blood pressure measuring method. Background technique [0002] Blood pressure is one of the important indicators to observe an individual's health status. Abnormal blood pressure, whether it is too high or too low, implies a problem with the individual's physiological condition, especially cardiovascular diseases that are generally difficult to detect from the outside. Due to the aging body function of the elderly, the risk of suffering from cardiovascular disease is high, so in the past, it was very important to measure blood pressure regularly for the purpose of early detection and early treatment. However, modern people are under a lot of pressure in life, and the three meals a day are not normal, so the age of the group that needs to be monitored regularly has a downward trend in age. [0003] figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the appearance of a known sphygmomanometer. Please ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, it is known that the sphygmomanometer 1 easily makes the subject feel uncomfortable during the process of increasing and decreasing pressure, and the measurement takes too long, which reduces the willingness of the subject to measure, which is not conducive to long-term use

In addition, in terms of carrying around, the volume of the main unit 12 and the cuff 11 is too large, which is not conducive to monitoring blood pressure at any time

[0005] In recent years, a small number of watch-type blood pressure measuring devices have been launched on the market. Although this new product overcomes the problem that the known sphygmomanometer 1 is not easy to carry around, it generally cannot be properly fixed at the measurement position, so that it cannot Accurately measure the blood vessel pulse wave signal, which will lead to inaccurate blood pressure measurement values, or even doubts about measurement failure
