Title:
CARDIOVASCULAR MONITORING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2014036843
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a cardiovascular monitoring device having two types of functions of a blood pressure measurement and an electrocardiogram measurement and improving contact stability between the skin of a user and electrocardiographic electrodes.

The cardiovascular monitoring device includes an inflatable cuff for surrounding a limb of a user, at least a first and a second electrodes, a controlling circuitry with a processor accommodated in a housing, and a display element, wherein one of the electrodes is implemented as dry electrode. The controlling circuitry is configured to perform a blood pressure measurement through controlling a pressure inside the inflatable cuff, and perform an electrocardiogram measurement by using the electrodes. The processor is also configured to provide a diastolic blood pressure and a systolic blood pressure when the blood pressure measurement is performed, and to provide a heart rhythm information when the electrocardiogram measurement is performed. For achieving a better and more stable contact between the electrodes and the user's skin, the present invention provides an improved structure with electrodes arranged thereon based on the conventional blood pressure monitor.
