Research Progress of Blood Pressure Measurement by Oscillometric Method

Blood pressure is an important physiological index that can reflect the function of the heart and blood vessels. Compared with other methods, oscillometric measurement has the advantages of strong noise immunity, simple operation and low cost, which is the most widely used technology for blood pressure measurement. In this paper, we reviewed and discussed the key technologies of measuring blood pressure, such as pre-processing method of oscillation envelope and blood pressure estimation technique. The latter include traditional wave method, waveform morphology method, the methods based on the model and machine learning. At last, we have a look forward to its future development direction.
