ABSTRACT:
A blood pressure monitor apparatus including a blood pressure measuring device which includes a cuff and measures a blood pressure value of the subject by changing a pressing pressure of the cuff, a volume pulse wave detecting device which detects a volume pulse wave of the subject, a normalized pulse-wave area calculating device for successively calculating an area which is defined by a waveform of each of heartbeat-synchronous pulses of the volume pulse wave and is normalized based on a period and an amplitude of the each pulse of the volume pulse wave, a pulse wave area-blood pressure relationship determining device for determining a relationship between pulse-wave area and blood pressure, based on a normalized pulse-wave area value and a blood pressure value, when the blood pressure value is measured; and a monitor blood pressure determining device for successively determining a monitor blood-pressure value of the subject, based on each of normalized pulse-wave area values, according to the pulse wave area-blood pressure relationship.
