Abstract

Objective To find a new algorithm for oscillometric blood pressure measurement. Method A coefficient difference comparative method was proposed to measure the difference of adjoining pulse waves and their comparative ratios. And the turning point was judged by priority way in the range. Result The new method settled the problem of miscarriage of justice of the turning point around average pressure and improved the accuracy of blood pressure measurement. Conclusion It can detect difference between cardiovascular patients and normal persons. And it is effective and reliable in blood pressure measurement. It provides a convenient method for researching, preventing and epidemiological studies of cardiovascular diseases in our country.
