Abstract
According to one embodiment, a blood pressure measuring apparatus includes a blood pressure measurement unit, a warning estimator, and a signal output unit. The measurement unit measures blood pressure of a target person. The estimator monitors variation of blood pressure measured by the measurement unit and estimates the variation of the blood pressure as a sign of a blood pressure increase associated with an onset of sleep apnea syndrome if the blood pressure continuously decreases to a preset threshold or lower for a predetermined time or longer. The output unit outputs a sign notification signal to outside of the apparatus if the sign is estimated by the estimator.
