Abstract :
A noninvasive system for measurement of systolic and diastolic arterial blood pressure is realized. The measurement is based on the application of two oscillometric methods for systolic and three for diastolic pressure. The relevant signals for systolic and diastolic pressure calculation are acquired during cuff deflation. Before determined pressure is shown on a display a weight is given to each measured value which depends on the accuracy of the particular method.
