Abstract:
To address the issue of the difficulty in implementing non-invasive continuous blood pressure measurement technology in China, this study developed a high-performance synchronous electrocardiogram (ECG) and photoplethysmography (PPG) signal acquisition system. A PC-based human-computer interaction software platform was constructed, and continuous blood pressure measurement-related algorithms were integrated. Multiple feature parameters such as pulse wave transit time based on synchronous ECG and PPG signals were extracted, enabling non-invasive continuous blood pressure measurement. To verify the measurement accuracy of the system, tests and comparative verifications were carried out. The results demonstrated that the system could meet the requirements of relevant standards and have good application value.

Equipments Used To Measure Blood Pressure
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...

Special considerations while measuring blood pressure
Monitoring Both Arms:
Monitoring BP in both arms during the initial assessment is advisable, as the systolic value may differ by five to ten mm Hg between arms. For subsequent BP assessments, use the arm with the higher reading.
