Blood Pressure
Conditions
Brief summary
The goal of this study is to develop and validate a new non-invasive medical instrumentation technology for blood pressure measurement.
Detailed description
The goal of this study is to develop and validate a new non-invasive medical instrumentation technology for assessing haemodynamic status measured from the fingertip using oscillometry. . As the finger pressing pressure is ramped up and then slowly down, an oscillometric response is recorded. From this signal the mean arterial pressure is found from which systolic and diastolic pressure is computed along with the full pressure waveform.
Interventions
DEVICEsphygmomanometer, SpyghmoCor, CNAP500
blood pressure is measured with developed new non-invasive technology, oscillometry from the fingertip, and compared to non-invasive standard blood pressure measurement using a standard sphygmomanometer/SpyghmoCor device/CNAP500 device.
