| 20090012409 | Determining Blood Pressure - A method and a measuring device for determining blood pressure, pressure signals being detected using a pressure sensor which may be applied to a body part, such as a wrist. The blood pressure is determined by an analysis unit, analyzing the pressure signals and considering signals from an orientation detection unit detecting the position and/or movement and/or acceleration of the body part. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20090099464 | METHOD FOR DETERMINING CARDIOVASCULAR PARAMETERS AND DEVICE AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR CARRYING OUT SAID METHOD - A method, device and computer program product used to determine at least one cardiovascular parameter P | 04-16-2009 |
| 20090131808 | SPHYGMOMANOMETER AND CHIP CARD THEREFOR - A sphygmomanometer and a chip card for use therein. The sphygmomanometer includes a measuring device for determining blood pressure data and a control device. The control device has a chip card reader operable to read an insertable control chip card. The chip card includes data which is read by the chip card reader. A control function of the sphygmomanometer is carried out as a result of the data being read by the chip card reader. | 05-21-2009 |
| 20090143687 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANAGING, ARCHIVING AND/OR EVALUATING BLOOD PRESSURE DATA - A device and method for managing, archiving and/or evaluating blood pressure data of a plurality of patients. The blood pressure data is acquired using blood pressure monitors. The blood pressure data for each patient is separately stored in an individual storage space in a central data server. A network connection including at least one network terminal is used to input the data into the individual storage space and read out the data from the individual storage space. A control device controls access to the storage spaces by comparing a transmitted access code including a unique device identification code for the blood pressure monitor of the patient corresponding to the individual storage space with a unique access code corresponding to the individual storage space. | 06-04-2009 |
| 20090198141 | SPHYGMOMANOMETER WITH DETACHABLE DATA TRANSMISSION DEVICE - A data transmission unit for a blood pressure meter. The data transmission unit includes an external transmission interface for the transmission of data to external data processing equipment and/or from external data processing equipment. The unit also includes an internal connection interface operable to detachably connect the data transmission unit to the blood pressure meter. As such, the data transmission unit forms an exchangeable interface converter for the blood pressure meter that converts a first data and/or transmission format fitting of the blood pressure meter into a second data and/or transmission format fitting of the external data processing device. | 08-06-2009 |
| 20090216134 | SPHYGMOMANOMETER - The invention relates to a sphygmomanometer for measuring blood pressure over a long period of time, especially over 24 hours, with a cuff which can be placed against an extremity of the body, a measuring device for determining blood pressure data, a control device for activating automatically the measuring device at specified time intervals, as well as a memory device for storing the blood pressure data determined in different measurements. Pursuant to the invention, the sphygmomanometer is novel owing to the fact that it is constructed as a portable instrument, for which the measuring device, a control device and the memory are part of the body of the device, which is fastened at the cuff. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20090275845 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR THE NON-INVASIVE DETECTION OF BLOOD FLOW AND ASSOCIATED PARAMETERS IN PARTICULAR ARTERIAL WAVEFORM AND BLOOD PRESSURE - A method and a device for the non-invasive determination of blood flow and associated parameters in arteries, in particular the arterial waveform and the blood pressure. According to said method, a sensor having at least one deformable contact portion is placed on a tissue surface, essentially over an artery, and the contact portion is subjected to a temporally variable and defined external force, F(t). The deformation of the contact portion by the blood flow inside the artery in response to said force F(t) is measured. | 11-05-2009 |
| 20110214289 | COMBINATION POWERED GROOMING DEVICE - A combination powered grooming device comprising a handle and a grooming attachment. The handle has a longitudinal axis extending between an upper end and a lower end. The handle comprises a trimmer assembly disposed adjacent the upper end and the trimmer assembly includes at least one moving blade. The handle further comprises an electrical arrangement disposed therein. The electrical arrangement comprises a motor having a drive shaft and a drive mechanism coupled to the drive shaft and to the trimmer assembly. In a trimming mode, the drive mechanism translates movement of the drive shaft to the moving blade. The grooming attachment is adapted for mounting onto the upper end. | 09-08-2011 |
