Oscillometric blood pressure measurement: the methodology, some observations, and suggestions.

摘要: Abstract Most noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) devices use the oscillometric method. Published studies of methodology introduced varied algorithmic approaches for determination systolic (SBP), diastolic (DBP), and mean arterial (MAP) pressures. While there is a general agreement about MAP determination, controversy exists SBP DBP. Accuracy has been questioned validation have revealed problems. Several protocols developed but they are expensive time consuming to conduct their own limitations. Instruments bench testing NIBP useful some device functions, cannot perform dynamic accuracy tests. The issue becoming very important as health care professionals increasingly rely on electronic devices. authors compact system acquisition waveforms. Some representative waveforms her...
