A Laboratory Set-up for Experimentation with the Cuffless Blood Pressure Measurement

The paper proposes a version of a laboratory set-up dedicated for experiments aimed at the cuffless reconstruction of the cause-effect relationships proper for the performing cardiovascular system and observed at the carotid artery level. Details of the electronic circuits construction is reported together with exemplary results of feasibility tests. Results provided in the study ought to be perceived qualitatively and can be used for prospective development of measurement procedure and instrumentation valid for noninvasive and remote monitoring of the cardiovascular system. The work fill the gaps in experimentation with the simple and cuffless scenario of physiological characteristics measurement, critical for clinical practice and in monitoring of patients with chronic cardiovascular diseases.
