There is provided a compression device for living being, simply structured and capable of fitting a site to be measured of any size. The compression device includes an elastic plate formed in one piece and elastically holding a predetermined curvature, provided for preventing a fluid bag from expanding outwards. The elastic plate includes a first curvature substantially matching a lateral cross section of a thin site to be measured, a second curvature and a connection connecting the first and second curvatures together. The connection allows the second curvature to be arranged outwardly of a virtual extension of the first curvature substantially matching the lateral cross section of the thin site to be measured. The second curvature extends inwardly of a virtual extension of the connection extending toward the second curvature.

Blood pressure measurement is precisely performed by more correctly determining positions of a cuff and a heart without being affected by variations in physical features among subject persons and their postures during the measurement. With the technique of the present invention, there are calculated the altitudes of the cuff and the heart on the basis of an inputted upper arm length and forearm length of a subject person and forearm angles detected in the pitch direction and roll direction. Also, in addition to a forearm angle detecting means, an upper arm angle detecting means is provided and the altitudes of the cuff and the heart are calculated on the basis of detected angles of a forearm and an upper arm. Also, a biaxial angle detecting means detects angles of the forearm in the pitch direction and the roll direction and calculates the altitudes of the cuff and the heart on the basis of these detected values.

A cuff for blood pressure monitor includes an air bag for pressing an upper arm, a curled elastic member wound annularly on the outside of the air bag and changeable in size in a radial direction, and a cover having a bag shape for including the air bag and the curled elastic member. The curled elastic member has an overlapping region in which one end and the other end thereof in a circumferential direction are overlapped with each other. The cuff has a sticker serving as an indicator for showing a spot to be held by hand in the fitting operation on a surface thereof at a position corresponding to a region opposing to the overlapping region of the curled elastic member or a region closer to the one end of the curled elastic member than the opposing region in the non-fitting state.

A vital sign detection device is mounted on the wrist of a subject for measurement of vital sign such as pulse wave and blood pressure and has a regulating portion for restricting the movement of the hand during a measurement. The regulating portion extends from a main body of the device toward the distal end of the hand, and may be a plate integral with the main body or the main body itself moved toward the distal end. When the device is used for the detection of pulse waves, the plate may have a band for tying the hand to the plate for preventing rotation of the wrist joint. When the device is used for the measurement of blood pressure, the main body of the device, which is slidably or rotatably transported toward the distal end, may suppress the movement of hand enough to prevent the rise of wrist tendons from hindering the measurement.

A bladder incorporated in a cuff includes an outer wall located at the outer side, an inner wall located at the inner side, side walls connected to both side ends of the outer wall and the inner wall in the wrapping direction, and folded inward of the bladder, and a joint connecting the side walls inside the bladder. A sphygmomanometer cuff is provided that can maintain the former configuration even when inflated or deflated without change in the width even if the bladder is inflated, and that does not dilate in the width direction when inflated.

A cuff for a sphygmomanometer includes an air bladder for compressing a living body, an exterior cover including the air bladder, and a fixing unit arranged in the exterior cover. A portion closer to an end of the exterior cover is inserted between a roller arranged in the fixing unit and a stopper, and is fixed by being pushed against the roller by the stopper. The roller is rotatable only in a direction of reducing the size of the annular portion of the exterior cover. Accordingly, the cuff for the sphygmomanometer has a simple configuration, is inexpensively manufactured, and easily carries out and stably reproduces attachment with respect to the upper arm.

A cuff of a pulse wave meter equipped with an arteriosclerosis degree judgment device has air bags for compressing a living body having a double structure along an artery including an avascularization air bag and a pulse-wave measuring air bag. Provided at outer circumferential sides of these air bags are a curler for integrally pressing these air bags against an upper arm, and an air bag for pressing the curler from the outer circumferential side. A member for suppressing vibrations is provided between a curler-compressing air bag and the pulse-wave measuring air bag, and suppresses propagation of vibrations from the curler-compressing air bag to the pulse-wave measuring air bag. The pulse wave meter measures a pulse wave based on changes in internal pressure in the pulse-wave measuring air bag while the avascularization air bag provides avascularization at the peripheral side.
