  • Patent number: 11690523
    Abstract: The present invention provides a carotid blood pressure detection device, comprising: a first sensing unit, a second sensing unit, and a controller connected or coupled to the first sensing unit and the second sensing unit. The first sensing unit is disposed on a subject's neck and adjacent to a first position of the subject's carotid arteries. The second sensing unit is disposed on the subject's neck and adjacent to a second position of the subject's carotid arteries. The controller derives a mean arterial pressure of a section of the subject's carotid arteries that lies between the first position and the second position of the subject's carotid arteries from pulse wave data measured and obtained by the first sensing unit and pulse wave data measured and obtained by the second sensing unit.

  • Patent number: 11517208
    Abstract: A single-arm micro air-pressure pump device, having an air pump body and a driving unit. The air pump body includes a supporting frame, an air chamber unit coupled to a side of the supporting frame, and a swing arm provided on the air chamber unit. The driving unit is fixed on the supporting frame and has an output shaft. The output shaft is provided with an eccentric shaft and is configured to rotate the eccentric shaft, and the eccentric shaft has an end coupled to the output shaft and an opposite end coupled to the swing arm in order to drive the swing arm into a reciprocating motion between at least a proximal position and a distal position with respect to the air chamber unit. The reciprocating motion pushes a piston unit provided on one end of the swing arm and causes the air output.

  • Patent number: 11375911
    Abstract: The present invention provides a carotid physiological parameter monitoring system, comprising: an electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring device, a carotid pulse wave detector, and at least one controller. The ECG monitoring device is disposed on a user's left and right wrists or on the user's chest to obtain ECG waveforms. The carotid pulse wave detector is disposed on the user's neck at a position corresponding to the user's carotid arteries for obtaining carotid pulse waveforms. The controller is provided in at least one of the ECG monitoring device, the carotid pulse wave detector, and a mobile device, wherein the controller is configured to obtain the user's carotid physiological parameter(s) (which may include carotid pulse wave velocity or carotid blood pressure) by calculating with the ECG waveforms and/or the carotid pulse waveforms.
