Methods and apparatus for determining cuff blood pressure
A method is provided for determining blood pressure for a subject using a sphygmomanometer. The method includes: measuring an oscillometric cuff pressure waveform of the subject using the sphygmomanometer; representing the measured waveform with a physical model accounting for mechanics of the cuff, an artery and coupling between the cuff and the artery; determining the model unknowns from the measured waveform; and determining blood pressure for the subject using the determined model.
