Screening System for Cardiac Problems through Non-Invasive Identification of Blood Pressure Waveform

Paulo Abreu    
Fernando Carneiro and Maria Teresa Restivo    

Resumen

This paper presents the initial development of a non-invasive system for identification of the pulse pressure waveform to be used for screening cardiac problems. The system employs a tonometric method using an off-the-shelf force sensor and custom-designed electronic circuits. Initial results on the use of the system are presented.
