Abstract :
This paper gives an overview of a project, which is focused on the development of a convenient device for continuous blood pressure (BP) monitoring with wireless communication interface. The reliability of long-term automatically monitoring is the main focus for current paper. 18 healthy subjects were tested with the continuous BP monitor against a brand of community-based BP monitor. Accuracy assessment of the monitor has been accomplished. As a result of current study, it can be used to self-monitoring in home.
