Intelligent System for Blood Pressure Monitoring

Abstract

The structure of the system for long-term blood pressure monitoring by pulse wave propagation time was presented. The algorithm for intelligent measurement of functioning parameters of the patient’s cardiovascular system, providing decrease of an indirect arterial blood pressure estimation errors and increase the reliability of the prediction of hypertensive crisis, was developed. The article includes description of hardware part of the system for synchronous recording of ECG and pulse wave signals, with using of the modern components, such as analog front ends for medical implementation and multipurpose wireless communication.
