APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ESTIMATING BLOOD PRESSURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18328257 titled 'APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ESTIMATING BLOOD PRESSURE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an apparatus for estimating blood pressure without invasive methods.
- The apparatus includes a bio-signal measurer that measures a bio-signal from a user.
- A processor is used to estimate blood pressure using the measured bio-signal.
- The processor extracts a first feature and a second feature from the bio-signal at a specific extraction time.
- Changes in the first and second features are estimated from a calibration time to the extraction time.
- Based on these changes, the processor estimates the user's blood pressure.
Original Abstract Submitted
An apparatus for non-invasively estimating blood pressure is provided. Thee apparatus for estimating blood pressure may include a bio-signal measurer configured to measure a bio-signal from a user and a processor configured to estimate blood pressure using the measured bio-signal. The processor may extract a first feature and a second feature from the bio-signal at an extraction time, estimate changes in the first feature and the second feature which have occurred during a time period from a calibration time at which the first feature and the second feature are calibrated to the extraction time at which the first feature and the second feature are extracted, and estimate a blood pressure based on the changes in the first feature and the second feature.
