Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are one of the major global health threats, causing millions of deaths each year. According to data from the World Health Organization, over 500 million people are affected by cardiovascular diseases, resulting in over 20 million deaths in 2021 alone, accounting for about one-third of the total global deaths. Invasive blood pressure measurement methods not only cause discomfort to patients but also pose a risk of infection. Meanwhile, cuffless cuff-based methods cannot provide continuous monitoring. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develop a cuffless continuous blood pressure measurement system based on photoplethysmography (PPG). By using waveform measurement technology, we aim to provide a more comfortable and safer method for blood pressure monitoring, thereby enhancing the management of cardiovascular diseases.

摘要

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are one of the major global health threats, causing millions of deaths each year. According to data from the World Health Organization, over 500 million people are affected by cardiovascular diseases, resulting in over 20 million deaths in 2021 alone, accounting for about one-third of the total global deaths. Invasive blood pressure measurement methods not only cause discomfort to patients but also pose a risk of infection. Meanwhile, cuffless cuff-based methods cannot provide continuous monitoring. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to develop a cuffless continuous blood pressure measurement system based on photoplethysmography (PPG). By using waveform measurement technology, we aim to provide a more comfortable and safer method for blood pressure monitoring, thereby enhancing the management of cardiovascular diseases.
