  • Publication number: 20230089660
    Abstract: In the present invention, date and time are set in a horizontal direction and blood pressure is set in a vertical direction on a display screen, and a change in a blood pressure value over a display target period is displayed as a bar graph with vertical bars each formed by connecting SBP and DBP for each time and arranged in the horizontal direction. When a position corresponding to a vertical bar at a specific time on the display screen is designated with a pointing device, blood pressure value data measured for each day at the specific time are averaged over the display target period to obtain a systolic blood pressure average value and/or a diastolic blood pressure average value, according to the position designated. The obtained systolic blood pressure average value and/or diastolic blood pressure average value is displayed together with the bar graph on the display screen.

  • Publication number: 20220240795
    Abstract: A sphygmomanometer includes a storage unit that stores a measured blood pressure value. In a nighttime blood pressure measurement mode, blood pressure measurement is automatically started according to a schedule, and a blood pressure is measured when a blood pressure measuring cuff is in a pressurization process or a depressurization process. Further, it is determined whether or not a current blood pressure value measured is different from a past blood pressure value stored in the storage unit beyond an allowable range. When the current blood pressure value is different from the past blood pressure value beyond the allowable range, it is discriminated which phenomenon among a plurality of predetermined types of phenomena has occurred in the subject. A time of remeasurement with respect to a measurement time of the current blood pressure value is variably set according to which phenomenon among the plurality of types of phenomena has occurred.
