The invention relates to a method for determining blood pressure in a blood vessel, according to which a pulse wave propagation time is caluculated in a measuring operation by means of at least two sensors arranged at a defined distance from one another. The method is characterized in that the blood pressure is calculated using a calibration carried out by means of a compression pressure measurement.
