Abstract
A device is for measuring a body parameter for a subject. The device comprises a sensor for measuring the body parameter, a housing element for positioning the sensor on a body part of the subject and an actuator system within the housing element for applying a pressure to the body part. The actuator system comprises two states, a first state based on the actuator system applying a first pressure to a first area of the body part and a second state based on the actuator system applying a second pressure to a second area of the body part. The device also comprises a controller configured to apply the first and second states at different times.
