Abstract
A biological information measurement apparatus includes: a pressure sensor including a pressure detecting element; a pressing mechanism which presses the pressure sensor against an artery in a living body; a press controller which controls a pressing force of the pressing mechanism; a blood flow sensor; a blood flow information measurer which measures blood flow information based on output of the blood flow sensor; a pressing force decider which decides a first pressing force based on blood flow information measured during a pressing force control time period when the pressing force is changed in one direction, and information of a pressure pulse wave detected during the pressing force control time period; and a record controller which records a pressure pulse wave detected in a first state where the pressing force is controlled to the first pressing force, and blood flow information measured in the first state.
