BLOOD PRESSURE/PULSE WAVE MEASUREMENT DEVICE

Title:

BLOOD PRESSURE/PULSE WAVE MEASUREMENT DEVICE

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/158909

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

This blood pressure/pulse wave measurement device measures the ankle brachial index and pulse wave velocity, said blood pressure/pulse wave measurement device being provided with: first cuffs (24br, 24bl) for pressing part of the upper limbs of a subject; second cuffs (24ar, 24al) for pressing part of the lower limbs of a subject; and first and second tubing (22br, 22bl, 22ar, 22al) connected to the individual first and second cuffs. The blood pressure/pulse wave measurement device is additionally provided with: a first detection unit that is connected to the first cuffs via the first tubing and that detects a first pulse wave propagated through the first tubing; a second detection unit that is connected to the second cuffs via the second tubing and that detects a second pulse wave propagated through the second tubing; and a control unit that calculates the ankle brachial index and pulse wave velocity using the first and second pulse waves. The first detection unit and the control unit are accommodated within a first housing (101). The second detection unit is accommodated within a second housing (102).
