Improving the design of arterial blood pressure monitor

Abstract

This paper present the implementation of a blood pressure monitor which provides taking measurements during inflation of the arm cuff. Brief overview of functions of modern BPM is given. Methods of blood pressure measuring are shown. Block diagram of a device is pictured and the operation principle of blood pressure monitor is described. Signal filtering and amplification stage is suggested. Neural networks algorithm is presented. Using this algorithm for signal processing affords getting results with sufficient precision.
