Abstract:One of key physiological indices in manned space flight missions is the continuous blood pressure.This index has been extensively applied in clinical monitoring,disease diagnosis,health evaluation and medical research.The noninvasive continuous blood pressure measuring method based on pulse wave velocity (PWV) is more expedient,comfortable and even without cuff,so it would beused widely.In this paper,we shed light on the PWV-based methods through classifying them into three categories:positive correlation,inverse correlation and multi-parameters measurements,and discussed the factors affecting blood pressure measurement; finally summarized the development and prospects for continuous blood pressure measurements.
Keywords:pulse wave velocitypulse transit timeblood pressure measurement
