Over the last decade a number of studies have been reported that have used heart–lung interactions during mechanical ventilation to assess fluid responsiveness. Specifically, the pulse pressure ...

The new device uses sound waves to gather blood pressure data from blood vessels, monitoring the response with ultrasound. The new technique, called resonance sonomanometry, holds the promise to ...

Systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial pressures (MAP) are the 3 BP values typically reported; to interpret a BP reading, all 3 must be evaluated. Systolic and diastolic BP are the pressures at the ...

A new, implantable, ultrasound-based blood pressure monitoring system represents a promising alternative to conventional tools for continuous, unobtrusive blood pressure measurement. Accurate, ...

Hypertension is the leading risk factor for cardiovascular disease, the most common cause of death worldwide. Less than half the people with high blood pressure are aware of their diagnosis, and only ...

Researchers have developed a thin, flexible ultrasound sensor that can estimate blood pressure continuously by tracking subtle changes in blood vessel diameter. Study: Skin-conformal PMN-PT ultrasonic ...

A concept design showing what the team envisions as final products using the resonance sonomanometry blood pressure method. The device on the upper arm measures from the brachial artery and the ...
