Embodiment Construction
[0019] Various embodiments will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers will be used throughout the drawings to refer to the same or like parts. References to specific examples and implementations are for illustrative purposes, and are not intended to limit the scope of the claims.
[0020] Various embodiments include methods for calibrating a blood pressure measurement device by determining a calibrated diastolic blood pressure from arterial dilatation measurements taken under known pressure conditions corresponding to times when transmural pressure is at or near zero. In some embodiments, the known pressure conditions may include a constant applied back pressure and a controlled change in hydrostatic pressure. The hydrostatic pressure can be varied by adjusting the altitude of the measurement site. Measuring the hydrostatic pressure in the limb at the site and the relatively small counterpressure app...
