Noninvasive measurement of instantaneous, radial artery blood pressure.

A new prototype system for the noninvasive measurement of instantaneous blood pressure (BP) in the human radial artery has been developed. The system is based on the volume-compensation method, but several components were newly designed, namely, a disk-type cuff for local pressurization and a nozzle...
