Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
There is no general valid and thus no recognized standard method of evaluation for oscillometric blood pressure measurement. This applies in particular to the determination of blood pressure parameters-systolic, diastolic and mean blood pressure-using a cuff pressure oscillogram. For this reason- and given that today's users are faced with an overwhelming choice of oscillometric blood pressure measuring devices-performance and function are very topical issues. The status and importance of oscillometric blood pressure measurement are inferred from an analysis of trends in the development of non-invasive blood pressure measurement. Oscillometric measurement is described from the point of view of signal analysis, and methods for identifying blood pressure parameters are presented. A check list has been compiled in the form of a questionnaire to help the user assess the performance and function of oscillometric blood pressure measuring devices. Instructions for use are given to avoid handling errors. |
