Abstract
A device for supporting a sensing surface above an underlying artery of a patient includes a hold down assembly and a sensor interface pivotally coupled to the hold down assembly. The hold down assembly is secured at a spaced position relative to the underlying artery of the patient. The sensor interface includes a flexible diaphragm, a compressible side wall and a mount. The flexible diaphragm has an active portion for transmitting blood pressure pulses of the underlying artery. The compressible side wall encircles the active portion and has a top end and a bottom end. The bottom end is secured to the flexible diaphragm. The mount is coupled to the top end of the compressible side wall. The mount has a connection located below the top end of the compressible side wall for receiving a movable member of the hold down assembly so that the movable member may be pivotally coupled to the sensor below the top end of the compressible side wall.
