Furthermore, the controller 315 is able to measure and process the arterial pulsations and thus the volume signal. Seen electronically, the absolute values correspond to the direct component (DC component) and the pulsations to the alternating component (AC component) of the pressure signal pc(t), as shown in FIG.
  • Controller 315 may have multiple control loops that have different functions. On the one hand, a control loop that controls the absolute pressure p c (t) can prove to be advantageous. The actuator of the measuring system is adjusted until the measured absolute pressure p c (t) corresponds to a target value pr(t).
  • the target value pr(t) can be specified by another control loop - the so-called "Vascular Control Technique" control loop (VCT controller).
  • VCT controller the so-called "Vascular Control Technique" control loop
  • the desired value (target value) pr(t) can be the mean arterial blood pressure (mBP). This is reached when the amplitudes of the pulsations have reached a maximum value.
  • mBP mean arterial blood pressure
  • the pulse amplitude is at its maximum.
  • the absolute values of the pulsations are unimportant here, the relative maximum is important. This is not the case with a tonometric method - the measured pulses would also correspond to the continuous blood pressure signal. Since this absolute pulse signal depends on many disturbing factors (such as the coupling factor, vascular stiffness, etc.), the clinical accuracy and thus the suitability of these tonometric methods suffer.
  • the VCT controller cannot tell from the pulse amplitude alone whether the mBP has become smaller or larger. As can be seen in FIG. 7, the pulse amplitudes become smaller both when the pressure is too low and when the pressure is too high.
  • the VCT controller can recognize from the pulse waveform whether the pressure pc(t) in the liquid-filled bladder 309 is too small or too large. If the pressure is too low, the pulse is wide or "thick" (see Fig. 7, B: pulse at 103 mmHg") compared to the "normal” pulse (see Fig. 7, A: pulse at 115 mmHg"), the pulse at too high a pressure is "spike” (see Fig. 7, C: pulse at 141 mmHg"). The VCT controller is now set to follow the pulse waveform of the optimal pulse with maximum amplitude.
  • This VCT mechanism now adjusts the setpoint p-r(t) and subsequently pc(t) in the liquid-filled bladder 309 such that pc(t) follows the actual mBP occurring in the artery of the limb.
  • pc(t) tracks the true intra-arterial pressure mBP with reasonable clinical accuracy.
  • the VCT controller receives a starting value for mBP and a template for the "normal" pulse waveform.
  • a search phase can be carried out before the start of the measurement.
  • Figure 8 shows how this search phase works.
  • the setpoint pr(t) and then pc(t) are increased continuously and the pulsations are registered.
  • These so-called "Oscillometric Waves” (OMW) are filtered and an envelope of the OMW is generated.
  • This envelope corresponds to the amplitudes of the pulsations.
  • the absolute value of the pc(t) at which the maximum amplitude was registered corresponds to the starting value for mBP, the pulse registered is the template for the "normal" pulse waveform.
  • This search phase works according to the oscillometric principle and also allows the determination of the systolic and diastolic blood pressure. The present measuring system can thus also determine the blood pressure intermittently.
  • This search phase can be repeated automatically at any time in order to increase the accuracy of the measurement - this option is not so easily possible with a pure tonometric measurement.
  • the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and thus the pulse pressure can be determined from the oscillometric envelope. This can be helpful when determining an amplification factor for a so-called transfer function.
