Abstract: A blood pressure measuring device is operatable in a first operating mode (M1) and in a second operating mode (M2). In the first operating mode, blood pressure values are based on one single measurement. In a second operating mode (M2), a mean value (SA, DA) of the systolic and the diastolic blood pressure is calculated on the basis of subsequent measurement values. The blood pressure monitor (1) is provided with means (2) for switching between the first operating mode (M1) and the second operating mode (M2).
