How does an electronic blood pressure monitor work?

2025-02-19 15:01:25 kalus 8

        At present, the medical blood pressure measuring instrument is called sphygmomanometer, sphygmomanometer is divided into direct sphygmomanometer and indirect sphygmomanometer, the principle of the two sphygmomanometer is different, in which the direct sphygmomanometer is directly measured by the pressure sensor, and the indirect sphygmomanometer is by controlling the pressure applied from the outside to the side of the site. The result of the control is judged against the information of the Cochrane sound production and the hour. At present, the electronic sphygmomanometer on the market uses the oscillographic method, which is also known as the shock method.

Steps for using an electronic blood pressure monitor

  1. Wear a cuff:Tie the cuff around your arm and activate the sphygmomanometer. The sphygmomanometer automatically pressurizes, stops pressurizing and starts deflating at a certain pressure.

  2. Detection shock wave:When the pressure drops to a certain level, blood flow through the blood vessels creates a shock wave. The shock waves travel through the organ to a pressure sensor that detects pressure and fluctuations within the cuff.

Characteristics of oscillographic electronic sphygmomanometer

  • epidemicity:At present, about 80% of families buy oscillographic electronic sphygmomanometer.

  • Measurement result float:The measurement results of oscillographic method may fluctuate, because it is based on the experimental statistics of a large number of people, and may have errors with the real situation of some people.

  • Clinical validation:Although clinical validation of electronic sphygmomanometers is primarily based on auscultation, this does not mean that mercury sphygmomanometer results are more accurate. Due to the damage of mercury to the environment, the use of mercury sphygmomanometer is gradually banned internationally.

The advantages of modern electronic blood pressure monitors

  • Fully automatic intelligent measurement:The modern electronic sphygmomanometer realizes automatic intelligent measurement, and the data can be automatically transmitted to the health management platform through the network, and the health data report can be generated and fed back to the user.

  • Accuracy enhancement:Due to the use of more advanced technology, the measurement results of modern electronic blood pressure monitors are more accurate than traditional electronic blood pressure monitors. However, due to individual differences, the measurement results of traditional and electronic sphygmomanometers may differ.
