Vital-information obtaining apparatus
First Claim
1. A vital-information obtaining apparatus comprising:
- a cuff to be worn on a predetermined portion of a living subject;
a cuff-pressure control device operable to control an inflation pressure of said cuff;
a cuff-pulse-wave detecting device operable to detect a cuff pulse wave which is a pressure pulsation transmitted from the living subject to said cuff; and
vital-information determining means operable while an inflation pressure of said cuff is held at a value higher than a systolic blood pressure of said living subject under the control of said cuff-pressure control device, said vital-information determining means determining vital information of said living subject, on the basis of a notch of said cuff pulse wave detected by said cuff-pulse-wave detecting device.

Abstract
A vital-information obtaining apparatus including a cuff to be worn on a predetermined portion of a living subject, a cuff-pressure control device operable to control an inflation pressure of the cuff, a cuff-pulse-wave detecting device operable to detect a cuff pulse wave which is a pressure pulsation transmitted from the living subject to the cuff, and a vital-information determining device operable while an inflation pressure of the cuff is held at a value higher than a systolic blood pressure of the subject under the control of the cuff-pressure control device, and wherein the vital-information determining means determines vital information of the subject, on the basis of a notch of the cuff pulse wave detected by the cuff-pulse-wave detecting device.
