Abstract: A system for calibration-free cuff-less evaluation of blood pressure is proposed. The system includes an ultrasound-based arterial compliance probes and a controller unit connected to the said probe. The ultrasound transducers measure the change in arterial dimensions, pulse wave velocity, and other character traits of an arterial segment over continuous cardiac cycle, which is then used to evaluate blood pressure parameters without any calibration procedure using dedicated mathematical models.
Abstract: The embodiments herein provide a system for calibration-free cuff-less evaluation of blood pressure. The system includes an ultrasound-based arterial compliance probes and a controller unit connected to the said probe. The ultrasound transducers are configured to measure the change in arterial dimensions, pulse wave velocity, and other character traits of an arterial segment over continuous cardiac cycle, which is then used to evaluate blood pressure parameters without any calibration procedure using dedicated mathematical models.
Abstract: Embodiments herein disclose a method and system for cuff-less blood pressure (BP) measurement of a subject. The method includes measuring, by one or more sensors, a local pulse wave velocity (PWV) and/or blood pulse waveforms of an arterial wall of the subject. Further, the method includes measuring, by an ultrasound transducer, a change in arterial dimensions over a cardiac cycle of the arterial wall of the subject. The arterial dimensions include an arterial distension and an end-diastolic diameter. Furthermore, the method includes measuring, by a controller unit, BP of the subject based on the local PWV and the change in arterial dimensions.
