The sphygmomanometer includes an air system piping communicating to the cuff in the blood pressure measurement mode and communicating to an air system of the accuracy check device in the accuracy check mode, a pressurization and depressurization unit for adjusting pressure to be applied to the air system piping, and a first pressure detection unit for detecting pressure in the air system piping. | 10-21-2010 |
20100286539 | BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT DEVICE FOR PERFORMING PROCESS TAKING CHANGE OF MEASUREMENT ENVIRONMENT INTO CONSIDERATION - A blood pressure measurement device includes a measurement fluid bag, a sensor for measuring a change in internal pressure of the measurement fluid bag, a blood pressure measurement unit for calculating a blood pressure value based on the change in internal pressure of the measurement fluid bag obtained by the sensor, an environmental information measurement unit for measuring environmental information in association with a calculation process of the blood pressure value, a storage unit for storing a measurement result, a recording processing unit for storing the calculated blood pressure value and the environmental information in the storage unit in association with each other and a notification unit for notifying a blood pressure fluctuation with respect to an environmental fluctuation based on the blood pressure value and the environmental information. | 11-11-2010 |
20110125035 | BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT DEVICE - In a sphygmomanometer, a value representing a perimeter of a measuring portion is obtained. A parameter for controlling a drive voltage of a pump is determined based on the value. The drive voltage is determined based on the parameter and an internal pressure of a fluid bladder to pressurize the fluid bladder. In pressurizing process, a diastolic blood pressure value is calculated. A systolic blood pressure value is estimated, and when the internal pressure of the fluid bladder reaches the pressure, the pressurizing is stopped. A gap of a valve for discharging the fluid from the fluid bladder is determined based on a perimeter of a measuring portion, and the fluid bladder is depressurized with the gap constant. In the depressurizing process, the systolic blood pressure value is calculated. When the systolic blood pressure value is calculated, the fluid is discharged from the fluid bladder, and the measurement is terminated. | 05-26-2011 |
20110160598 | ELECTRONIC SPHYGMOMANOMETER AND BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT CONTROL METHOD - A blood pressure measurement control method for controlling the measurement of a blood pressure according to an oscillometric method has the steps of determining whether to employ a depressurization measurement method or a pressurization measurement method to measure the blood pressure according to a person to be measured, performing a measurement process of the blood pressure in a depressurization process when determined to measure the blood pressure with the depressurization measurement method, performing a measurement process of the blood pressure in a pressurization process when determined to measure the blood pressure with the pressurization measurement method, and outputting the measured blood pressure value. | 06-30-2011 |
20120220884 | ELECTRONIC SPHYGMOMANOMETER, CONTROL METHOD FOR ELECTRONIC SPHYGMOMANOMETER, AND CONTROL PROGRAM FOR ELECTRONIC SPHYGMOMANOMETER - A sphygmomanometer has an automatic inflation mode and a manual inflation mode as modes for inflating a cuff. During control in the automatic inflation mode, the sphygmomanometer can determine whether the mode should be switched to the manual inflation mode. Upon switching to the manual inflation mode, when inflation is being carried out in the manual inflation mode, a mark indicating that inflation is being carried out in the manual inflation mode is displayed in a display region in a display screen. | 08-30-2012 |
20140350419 | BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT DEVICE - A blood pressure measurement device includes a cuff and a control unit. The cuff includes a first securing portion, provided on one surface of the cuff, for securing the cuff to the measurement area in a wrapped state, and a second securing portion, provided on another surface of the cuff, for securing the cuff to the measurement area in a wrapped state. At least one of the first securing portion and the second securing portion includes an electromagnet portion. The control unit secures the cuff to the measurement area by controlling a magnetic force emitted from the electromagnet portion and causing the second securing portion to be attracted to the first securing portion. | 11-27-2014 |
20150025400 | BLOOD PRESSURE METER - With the blood pressure meter of the present invention, a pump unit is connected via a first fluid path to a fluid bladder. The first fluid path extends straight in the Z direction between the pump unit and the fluid bladder, sends air supplied from the pump unit to the fluid bladder or sends air inside of the fluid bladder to a valve. | 01-22-2015 |
20150038801 | BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT DEVICE HAVING FUNCTION OF DETERMINING REST CONDITION OF PATIENT - A blood pressure measurement device measures a pulse period of a patient and includes a memory, a threshold calculation section, a rest/unrest condition determination section, and a display unit. The memory stores data of the measured pulse period and data of a pulse period of past measurement of the patient. The threshold calculation section calculates a threshold value range based on the data of the pulse period of the past measurement of the patient. The rest/unrest condition determination section determines whether the patient was under the rest condition or the unrest condition during blood pressure measurement by comparing the measured pulse period with the threshold value range. The display unit displays the blood pressure measured and whether the blood pressure was measured when the patient was in the rest condition or the unrest condition. | 02-05-2015 |
20150038802 | BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT DEVICE HAVING FUNCTION OF DETERMINING REST CONDITION OF PATIENT - A method includes pressurizing a cuff of a blood pressure measurement device that is wrapped around a measurement site of a patient, measuring the patient's blood pressure and pulse period during and before depressurization of the cuff, calculating a threshold value range of the pulse period based on data of a past measured pulse period of the patient, determining whether the measured pulse period is within the threshold value range of the past measured pulse period, if the measured pulse period is determined to be within the threshold value range of the past measured pulse period both during and before depressurization, displaying that the patient was in the rest condition, and if the measured pulse period is determined not to be within the threshold value range of the past measured pulse period either during or before depressurization, displaying that the patient was in the unrest condition. | 02-05-2015 |
