Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for analyzing pulse using an array of pressure sensors comprising: an array of pressure sensors that measures the pulse data with a plurality of piezoresistive pressure sensors; a moving part that moves the array of pressure sensors; a controller that controls the moving part, so that the array of pressure sensors can be positioned at the pulse diagnosis site, and analyzes the pulse data measured by the array of pressure sensors; and a display that displays the pulse profile analyzed by the controller. Since both the applied pressure and the pulse pressure can be measured simultaneously using the piezoresistive pressure sensors, various pulse diagnosis techniques can be applied and since pulse length, pulse thickness, etc. can be displayed in four dimensions, softness or roughness of the pulse and other pulse information can be conveyed visually.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a blood pressure measurement apparatus comprising: an input unit where at least one value selected from the maximum applied pressure, which is the applied pressure at which the maximum pulse pressure is attained during the pulse pressure measurement at the measurement part, the maximum pulse pressure, which is the pulse pressure at the maximum applied pressure, the depth of blood vessel at the measurement part measured by a pressure sensor, the elasticity of skin tissue at the measurement part and the elasticity of blood vessel at the measurement part is inputted; and a mean arterial pressure calculation unit where the mean arterial pressure is calculated from the input values of the maximum applied pressure, the depth of blood vessel and the elasticity of skin tissue. The present invention offers more effective and reliable blood pressure measurement apparatus.
