An MEMS pressure sensing apparatus includes an MEMS pressure sensor, and first and second film sheets. The MEMS pressure sensor has a first space on a side of a pressure detection surface of a diaphragm, and has the diaphragm. The first film sheet is placed on and in contact with a part under measurement so as to support the MEMS pressure sensor, and has a second space communicating with the first space and having a size in a direction parallel to the pressure detection surface. The second film sheet has a third space with a size in a direction parallel to the pressure detection surface for positioning the MEMS pressure sensing apparatus on the part under measurement, and is placed such that an area of the part under measurement is located in the third space before the MEMS pressure sensing apparatus is placed on the part under measurement.

A vessel pulse wave measurement system performs vessel pulse wave measurement using an optical probe circuit provided with an optical probe including a light emitting element and a light receiving element, a drive circuit, and a detection circuit. A measurement device directly and synchronously feeds back an electrical signal from the optical probe to the drive circuit as a drive signal to generate a self-oscillation signal from the detection circuit, and measures the self-oscillation signal as a vessel pulse wave signal. A controller controls an operating point of at least one of the detection circuit and the drive circuit such that the self-oscillation signal substantially reaches a maximum level thereof.
