18. A non-invasive radial artery blood pressure (BP) waveform measuring apparatus system application, wherein the steps of measuring PMBP include:
-
using the digital BP monitor oscillometric method to measure SBP and DBP;
measuring BP waveforms, and drawing a diagram with X-Y plane ( FIG. 7 ),wherein Y-axle is relative voltage value V, X-axle is real time t;
measuring the V(mean) of pre-measured BP waveform according to the following formula;
V(mean)=V-t integral value/(t2-t1)
(1)Wherein V(mean) represents relative mean voltage, V-t integral value represents the integral value within t1 (the staiting point of waveform) to t2 (the endpoint of waveform) domain in V-t waveform diagram, t2-t1 represents time interval of individual waveform.

PMBP=V(mean)*(SBP−
DBP)/(VS−
VD)

V(mean) represents relative mean voltage;
SBP represents systolic blood pressure;
DBP represents diastolic blood pressure;
VS represents the maximum value (peak) of BP waveforms;
VD represents the minimum value (trough) of BP waveform;
PMBP of each BP waveform can be estimated according to the following formula;
the mean of these PMBP are then estimated according to the following formula;
PMBP(mean)=SUM(PMBP)/N

19. A non-invasive radial artery blood pressure (BP) waveform measuring apparatus system application, wherein the steps for identifying testees include:
-
collecting continuously testees'"'"' BP waveform on a regular time (i.e. 50 sec. or 1 min.);
finding out the starting point (trough), endpoint (the starting point of next waveform), and each peak and trough of each BP waveform;
estimating the characteristic parameters of peak number, time, pressure, tilting angle, area, and their normalized characteristic parameters of each BP waveform;
estimating the mean of these parameters within the test period, and defining them as characteristic baseline of the testee'"'"'s BP waveform;
comparing the testee'"'"'s BP waveform characteristic parameters with the characteristic baseline described above;
if there is a cerain degree of Similarity, the testee can be identified as the same one, otherwise the testee is identified as a different one;
If a group of people (i.e. more than two) undergo measurement of BP waveform characteristic baseline, if one takes the test with unknown identification, the testee'"'"'s BP waveform characteristic parameters can be compared with others one by one to select one with highest similarity, which can be used to judge if said testee is an identified one;
the so-called similarity can be regulated according to experiemtns and identification requirements. - View Dependent Claims (20)

-
collecting continuously testee'"'"'s BP waveform within the test period (i.e. 1˜
10 min.), and drawing a X-Y diagram, wherein X-value represents time, Y-value represents voltage or pressure;

22. A non-invasive radial artery blood pressure (BP) waveform measuring apparatus system application, wherein the steps for monitoring symptoms of cough or sneeze include:
-
collecting continuously testees'"'"' BP waveform;
estimating the mean and standard division of testees'"'"' three parameters (that is, primary peak-to-pimary peak time interval, pressure value of primary peak, and pressure value of primary trough) of BP waveform within the initial stage (i.e. one min.), and defining the mean as baseline of the three parameters;
monitoring the three parameters of BP waveform all the time within the test period;
if one (or more) of the parameters deviate the baseline and attains predetermined multiple (i.e. triple) of standard division or above, this waveform can be called suspicious irregular data point;
As suspicious irregular data dot occurs randomly (without regular frequency), it can be defined as cough or sneeze;
Cough or sneeze frequency can be obtained (i.e. three times per minute) through statistics.
