Popis: The methods for evaluating noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) monitors using an intra-arterial reference are detailed in the ANSI/AAMI/ISO 81060-2:2009 standard. In a recent study, GE Healthcare obtained invasive radial arterial blood pressure waveforms. The work presented here describes the development of filtering strategies for obtaining high fidelity intra-arterial pressure waveforms for NIBP accuracy testing using the 81060-2 standard. The natural frequency and damping factor of each subject-catheter–transducer system was computed from fast-flush transients. These parameters were used to construct filters for removing or reducing resonance artifacts. Additionally, new optimal damping factors were evaluated for designing compensation filters. Theoretical measurement systems using actual damping factors (
