Blood-pressure monitor apparatus
First Claim
1. A blood-pressure monitor apparatus, comprising:
- a blood-pressure measuring device which includes an inflatable cuff adapted to apply a pressing pressure to a portion of a living subject and which measures a blood pressure of the subject by changing the pressure of the cuff applied to said portion of the subject;
a blood-pressure-relating-information obtaining device which iteratively obtains, from the living subject, blood-pressure-relating information which changes with change of the blood pressure of the subject;
a blood-pressure-measurement starting means for starting a blood-pressure measurement of the blood-pressure measuring device, when a subsequent piece of blood-pressure-relating information obtained by the blood-pressure-relating-information obtaining device after the blood-pressure measuring device has measured a last blood pressure of the living subject in a last blood pressure measurement thereof has deviated by not less than a predetermined amount from an initial piece of blood-pressure-relating information obtained by the obtaining device when the blood-pressure measuring device measured the last blood pressure of the subject;
a display device which displays a graph representing the pieces of blood-pressure-relating information obtained by the blood-pressure-relating-information obtaining device; and
a control device which comprises a determining means for determining a proportion of an amount of change, from said initial piece of blood-pressure-relating information, of each one of subsequent pieces of blood-pressure-relating information iteratively obtained by the obtaining device after the blood-pressure measuring device has measured the last blood pressure of the subject; and
a control means for controlling the display device to display the graph representing the initial piece of blood-pressure-relating information and the determined proportion of the amount of change of said each one of subsequent pieces of blood-pressure-relating information, so that the initial piece of blood-pressure-relating information and the determined proportion of the amount of change of said each one subsequent piece of blood-pressure-relating information can be compared with each other on the display device.

Abstract
A blood-pressure monitor, including a blood-pressure measuring device including a cuff, an information obtaining device which iteratively obtains, from a living subject, physical information which changes with change of blood pressure of the subject, a measurement starting device for starting a measurement of the blood-pressure measuring device, when a subsequent piece of information obtained by the obtaining device after the measuring device has measured a last blood pressure of the subject in a last measurement thereof has been deviated by not less than a predetermined amount from an initial piece of information obtained by the obtaining device when the measuring device measured the last blood pressure of the subject, a display device which displays a graph representing the pieces of information obtained by the obtaining device, and a control device which controls the display device to display the graph representing the initial piece of information and each one of subsequent pieces of information iteratively obtained by the obtaining device after the measuring device has measured the last blood pressure of the subject, so that the initial piece of information and the each one subsequent piece of information can be compared with each other.

a blood-pressure measuring device which includes an inflatable cuff adapted to apply a pressing pressure to a portion of a living subject and which measures a blood pressure of the subject by changing the pressure of the cuff applied to said portion of the subject;
a blood-pressure-relating-information obtaining device which iteratively obtains, from the living subject, blood-pressure-relating information which changes with change of the blood pressure of the subject;
a blood-pressure-measurement starting means for starting a blood-pressure measurement of the blood-pressure measuring device, when a subsequent piece of blood-pressure-relating information obtained by the blood-pressure-relating-information obtaining device after the blood-pressure measuring device has measured a last blood pressure of the living subject in a last blood pressure measurement thereof has deviated by not less than a predetermined amount from an initial piece of blood-pressure-relating information obtained by the obtaining device when the blood-pressure measuring device measured the last blood pressure of the subject;
a display device which displays a graph representing the pieces of blood-pressure-relating information obtained by the blood-pressure-relating-information obtaining device; and
a control device which comprises a determining means for determining a proportion of an amount of change, from said initial piece of blood-pressure-relating information of a most deviated one of subsequent pieces of blood-pressure-relating information iteratively obtained by the obtaining device after the blood-pressure measuring device has measured the last blood pressure of the subject; and
a control means for controlling the display device to display the graph representing the initial piece of blood-pressure-relating information and the determined proportion of the amount of change of said most deviated one of subsequent pieces of blood-pressure-relating information, so that the initial piece of blood-pressure-relating information and the determined proportion of amount of the change of said most deviated subsequent piece of blood-pressure-relating information can be compared with each other on the display device, said most deviated subsequent piece of blood-pressure-relating information being more deviated from the initial piece of blood-pressure-relating information, than any other subsequent piece of blood-pressure-relating information.- View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)
