A pressurizing/depressurizing section () increases or decreases an internal pressure of a cuff ().

A detecting section () detects the internal pressure. A storage section () stores control modes ways for increasing/decreasing the internal pressure of which are different. A determining section () determines a type of the cuff () in accordance with whether the detected internal pressure has reached the pressure steady state within a predetermined time period since start of the pressure transient state. A second controlling section () selects one of the control modes in accordance with the determined type of the cuff (), and to control the operation of the pressurizing/depressurizing section () in accordance with the selected one of the control modes.
