Equipments Used To Measure Blood Pressure

972
Direct Method
This invasive approach involves cannulating a peripheral artery. During each cardiac contraction, pressure generates mechanical motion within the catheter, transmitted through rigid, fluid-filled tubing to a transducer. This transducer converts mechanical motion into electrical signals displayed as waveforms on a monitor. An automatic flushing system prevents blood backflow. Due to the potential risk of unexpected arterial blood loss, this method is primarily used in intensive...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Sensor Technology

Background:

  • Flexible pressure sensors are vital for wearable healthcare but face challenges balancing sensitivity and sensing range.
  • Microstructure compressibility limits sensor response linearity and range, hindering practical applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a flexible pressure sensor with enhanced sensitivity and a wide, linear sensing range.
  • To address the limitations of current pressure sensors in wearable healthcare applications.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized multi-level pyramidal microstructures in flexible pressure sensor design.
  • Investigated the compensatory behavior of microstructures for improved pressure response.
  • Characterized sensor performance including sensitivity, linearity, response/relaxation times, and minimum detectable pressure.

Main Results:

  • Achieved high sensitivity (8775 kPa-1) and a linear response (R2 = 0.997) up to 1000 kPa.
  • Demonstrated fast response (11.6 ms) and relaxation (3.8 ms) times.
  • Successfully detected pressures as low as 30.2 Pa, showing applicability in detecting weak physiological signals.

Conclusions:

  • The novel multi-level pyramidal microstructure design effectively overcomes the sensitivity-range trade-off in flexible pressure sensors.
  • The sensor's performance makes it suitable for diverse human body health monitoring, from pulse detection to gait analysis.
  • This design enhances practical utility by eliminating the need for multiple sensors with varying ranges.
