摘要： A sensor is pressurized adjustably against a patient's wrist and detects a pressurized pulse wave of a radial artery in a noninvasive manner so as to measure blood pressure on an arm band wound around the patient's predetermined portion. A CPU calculates indices reflecting a reflecting phenomenon of a pulse wave as organism information different from the blood pressure based on the detected pulse waveform, and relates the measured blood pressure value with calculated indices so as to display them on an indicator. A doctor checks displayed contents so as to clearly understand a state of a circulatory system represented by a correlation between the patient's blood pressure and the indices so as to be capable of obtaining information which supports a diagnosis and prescription quickly.

摘要： A pressing cuff presses a pressure sensor above an artery. The level of the pressure applied to the pressure sensor is changed while the pulse wave is measured based on information about the pressure from the pressure sensor. In order to adjust the level of the applied pressure using the pressure of gas in the pressing cuff, a three-port valve and a two-port valve are controlled so that the connection is changed to establish a state of holding the amount of the gas in the pressing cuff. Then, the state is changed to a state of isolating and discharging gas in which a part of the held gas is isolated from the remaining amount of the gas to be discharged. Then, the state is changed to the state of holding the remaining amount of gas in the pressing cuff.

摘要： 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.

摘要： A pulse wave measuring apparatus including a semiconductor substrate having a pressure-sensing device on a main surface and a protection member with an accommodation space therein for accommodating the semiconductor substrate detects a pulse wave of an artery located in a living body by pressing the semiconductor substrate against the body. A wall surface of the protection member that forms the accommodation space is arranged such that an air chamber is interposed between the wall surface and an end surface of the semiconductor substrate that is exposed to air. A pulse wave measuring apparatus of this structure allows accurate and stable measurement of the pulse wave.

摘要： An array-type capacitive pressure pulse wave sensor includes m rows of lower electrodes arranged in parallel with each other to extend substantially linearly in a direction approximately orthogonal to the extending direction of the artery at the time of measurement, n columns of upper electrodes arranged in parallel with each other at a prescribed distance from the m lower electrodes to extend in a direction crossing the extending direction of the m lower electrodes, and m×n capacitive elements formed at intersections of the m lower electrodes and the n upper electrodes. The m×n capacitive elements are arranged in a staggered manner when the pressure detecting portion is seen in two dimensions. Thus, it is possible to provide an array-type capacitive pressure pulse wave sensor that can be manufactured inexpensively and that ensures accurate and stable measurement of the pressure pulse wave.
