Abstract
A pulse wave propagation time measurement device including a first signal processor section that filters an electrocardiographic signal detected by an electrocardiographic sensor, a second signal processor section that filters a photoelectric pulse wave signal detected by a photoelectric pulse wave sensor, peak detectors respectively that detect peaks of the electrocardiographic signal and the photoelectric pulse wave signal, delay time obtaining sections respectively that obtain a delay time of the electrocardiographic signal and of the photoelectric pulse wave signal, peak correctors respectively that correct the peaks of the electrocardiographic signal and the photoelectric pulse wave signal based on the delay time of the electrocardiographic signal and the photoelectric pulse wave signal, and a pulse wave propagation time measurement section that obtains a pulse wave propagation time from a time difference between the corrected peaks of the electrocardiographic signal and the photoelectric pulse wave signal.
