Abstract
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.

14. A vital sign detection device configured to be mounted on a wrist of a hand of a subject comprising:
-
a main body configures to be mounted on a palm side of the wrist;
a pressure sensing unit for sensing a pulse wave;
a pressurizing unit for applying pressure to the pressure sensing unit on a detection portion of the wrist;
a cuff configured for mounting the main body on the palm side of the wrist; and
a regulating portion for restricting movement of the hand, said regulating portion extending along the direction of the hand and comprising two parts integral to each other, and said two parts being adjustable so that the length of the regulating portion is adjusted. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
