More Information
Summary:The disclosed non-invasive blood pressure measurement systems and methods using the conservation of mass, conservation of momentum, and/or constitutive equation(s), which may also include the water hammer equation use pulse wave velocity and blood velocity. There are multiple manners by which pulse wave velocity and blood velocity may be assessed by transmitting energy, such as light or ultrasound, through tissues of the patient and measuring values and times of reflectivity of the energy from the interrogated tissues. Blood pressure can be determined from the one or more manners of assessing the PWV, blood velocity, and blood flow profile.
