Abstract: For each blood pressure measurement, measured blood pressure data output by a blood pressure calculation unit is stored in a memory. On this occasion, the number of times of measurement is incremented by a number of times of measurement update unit, and data on the incremented number of times of measurement is stored in the memory. Based on information read from the memory, a number of times display data generation unit generates display data for a count result of the number of times of blood pressure measurement, and supplies the generated display data to a display control unit. Based on the supplied data, the display control unit displays the count result of the number of times of blood pressure measurement on a display unit.

Abstract: A winding unit (150) for an air tube provided to a blood pressure monitor (100) includes a reel body (153) that is rotatably supported by a case body, and a helical spring that biases the reel body (153) in the direction in which the air tube is wound. The air tube includes a wound portion (162) wound by the reel body (153), a fixed portion (163) immovably fixed to the case body, and a freely movable portion (164) that freely moves as the reel body (153) rotates. The reel body (153) has a housing (153a) provided therein and the freely movable portion (164) of the air tube is contained in the housing. A second free-movement end (166) which is the boundary between the fixed portion (163) and the freely movable portion (164) of the air tube is disposed at an eccentric position relative to a rotational center (O) of the reel body (153) as seen from the direction of the rotational axis of the reel body (153).

Abstract: A cuff for a blood pressure monitor is provided with an air bag including a first bag member located outside and a second bag member located inside in the thickness direction when fitted on a living body. The first and second bag members have first and second inflated/deflated spaces, respectively. The second bag member is formed by laying a single-layer resin sheet on the surface on the living body side of the first bag member and by melting and bonding its rim to the surface. A bonded portion of the first bag member with the resin sheet is positioned inner than each end in the width direction of the first inflated/deflated space. Thus, a cuff for a blood pressure monitor fabricated with ease and at low cost, exhibiting high pressing performance and high avascularization performance, and suitable for reduction of cuff width can be provided.

Abstract: In an electronic blood pressure monitor, an input of measurement condition specifying information for specifying a measurement condition at blood pressure measurement among a plurality of measurement conditions, such as an input of time information, is received. Based on the received measurement condition specifying information, at least one measurement condition of a patient at blood pressure measurement is determined. A calculated blood pressure value is recorded by being associated with the measurement condition determined as such.

Abstract: A plurality of pieces of measurement result data measured in a prescribed period is retrieved from blood pressure data stored in a memory. A CPU determines whether at least a plurality of prescribed number of pieces of blood pressure data corresponding to each of the plurality of measurement conditions are present in the retrieved plurality of pieces of blood pressure data. When the CPU determines that at least the plurality of prescribed number of pieces of blood pressure data are present, it calculates an average value of a blood pressure data group that includes the at least the plurality of prescribed number of pieces of blood pressure data, for each of the measurement conditions. The CPU then calculates a correlated evaluation quantity based on correlation of the average values respectively calculated for the measurement conditions.

Abstract: The main object of the present invention is to provide a method for easily producing a high quality organic EL element by the transfer at a relatively low temperature, an organic EL transfer member and a member to be transferred used therefore.

Abstract: At the time of blood pressure measurement by an electronic blood pressure monitor, a calculation portion calculates a blood pressure based on a pressure within a cuff detected by a pressure sensor, and outputs blood pressure data. A data storing portion stores the blood pressure data in a memory in association with condition data indicating a condition concerning the blood pressure. A manipulation portion is manipulated by a user to designate a desired condition from among a plurality of conditions. When the manipulation portion is manipulated, a read and display portion searches the memory based on the condition designated by the manipulation, reads the blood pressure data associated with the designated condition from the memory, and displays the read data on a display portion.

Abstract: Measured blood pressure data is stored in a memory in association with information related to a measurement time. In response to manipulation of a manipulation portion (memory recall switch), blood pressure data associated with the measurement time within a prescribed time period (for example, 10 minutes) from the measurement time of reference blood pressure data, among the blood pressure data stored in the memory, is retrieved as specific data. Then, an average value is calculated based on the specific data, and the calculated average value is displayed as an evaluation index.

Abstract: A blood pressure monitor includes a cuff having an air bag, a main-unit casing in which an inflation/deflation mechanism for inflating/deflating the air bag is provided, a flexible air tube connecting the air bag and the inflation/deflation mechanism, and a retractor unit capable of drawing in the air tube that is drawn out from the main-unit casing into an air tube housing provided in the main-unit casing. With this structure, the blood pressure monitor can be made superior in housing of the air tube connecting the cuff and the main-unit casing.

Abstract: An electronic blood pressure monitor has a switch detecting whether a front cover is open or closed. When the front cover is opened by a subject, the switch detects that the cover is opened, and outputs a detection signal to a control portion. In control portion a CPU operates in response to the detection signal being received to cause a power supply switch LED to flash on and off/turn on. This indicates that of a variety of switches of a console, the type of manipulation switch that should first be operated is a power supply switch.

Abstract: In an electronic blood pressure monitor, a data storing portion stores data of a blood pressure obtained by blood pressure measurement in a memory in association with a condition at the time of the blood pressure measurement. An average value calculation portion calculates average blood pressure data based on a blood pressure data group measured after getting up in the memory, and also calculates average blood pressure data based on a blood pressure data group measured before going to bed in the memory. A display control portion displays a relation between the calculated average blood pressure data on a display portion in a prescribed display manner.

Abstract: A blood pressure monitor includes a switch for designating a user who is a subject. The switch for designating a user also serves as a power switch. When this switch is pressed as the first step for blood pressure measurement, the blood pressure monitor is turned on. The blood pressure monitor does not operate even when a switch for blood pressure measurement operation or a switch for display of recorded past measurement values is pressed before the switch for designating a user is pressed.
