Abstract
A system and method for measuring blood pressure makes flow velocity measurements from an artery location and vessel diameter measurements from the same artery location, using an ultrasound system. An arterial wave velocity is obtained from the blood flow velocity and vessel diameter and changes in blood pressure are then tracked. A continuous blood pressure estimate is made from intermittent cuff measurements together with tracked changes in blood pressure between those intermittent measurements.
