We present an unobtrusive cuff-less sphygmomanometer based on contact-type and optical pulse sensors for continuous and minimally invasive monitoring of blood pressure (BP). We developed a cuff-less sphygmomanometer that utilizes the pulse arrival time (PAT) to estimate continuous BP. To assess its accuracy, we recruited 10 healthy subjects in whom we carried out BP studies using the cuff-less sphygmomanometer compared with a standard cuff-type device in a stationary sitting patient. Preliminary results showed that the mean difference (MD) of estimated systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure were 0.96 ± 9.6 (mean ± SD) mmHg and 1.14 ± 7.5 mmHg, respectively, compared to the control. The corresponding correlation between the estimated BP values and controls were 0.78 for systolic blood pressure (p 0.01) and 0.69 for diastolic blood pressure (p 0.01); thus, there were significant correlations. These results suggest that the developed cuff-less sphygmomanometer has the potential for continuous BP monitoring. Finally, we conducted a preliminary study of simultaneous monitoring of cuff-less BP and near-infrared spectroscopy to evaluate the potential for assessment of autonomic nervous system functions during mental stress tasks. |
