Estimating Blood Pressure during Exercise with a Cuffless Sphygmomanometer [PDF]
Accurately measuring blood pressure (BP) is essential for maintaining physiological health, which is commonly achieved using cuff-based sphygmomanometers. Several attempts have been made to develop cuffless sphygmomanometers.
