Abstract (EN): A blood pressure measurement system can provide different measurements types, either absolute discrete values such as systolic and diastolic pressure or continuous monitoring pulse pressure waveform. The apparatus and methods for examining blood pressure over the human body's arterial system is done, whether through an invasive or non-invasive approach. An invasive test requires the use of a hypodermic needle to puncture the skin and penetrate the artery to continuous monitor the blood pressure. The other type of examination, the non-invasive, supports a system placed on the surface of an underlying artery of a patient to collect the fluctuations in blood pressure. Many devices and methods have been developed over the years to accomplish high accuracy and continuous monitoring. A device under development for screening purposes of cardiac problems, through the identification of the pulse pressure waveform with a force sensor is described and initial results presented. © 2019 IEEE.
