Abstract
A method for estimating blood pressure of a care recipient includes establishing a pre-maneuver reference value of blood pressure and a companion nonreference value of blood pressure, subjecting the care recipient to a maneuver, establishing a post-maneuver reference value of blood pressure and a companion post-manuever nonreference value of blood pressure, establishing an operational post-maneuver nonreference value of blood pressure, and adjusting the operational value as a function of the pre-maneuver and post-maneuver values. An associated apparatus includes a sensor, a processor and a memory which contains instructions. The instructions, when executed, cause the processor to estimate blood pressure as a function of a pre-maneuver reference value of blood pressure, a companion pre-maneuver nonreference value of blood pressure, a post-maneuver reference value of blood pressure, a companion post-manuever nonreference value of blood pressure, and an operational value of blood pressure based on information sensed by the sensor.
