A wearable measuring system configured for determining a blood pressure of a user, including: a first measuring unit including a PPG sensor, a first voltage measuring electrode and a first current injecting electrode; and a second measuring unit including a second voltage measuring electrode and a second current injecting electrode. The first measuring unit is removably attachable to a user's body first location such that a PPG signal can be measured by a PPG sensor at the first location, and the second measuring unit is removably attachable to a user's body second location, such that an ECG and an ICG signal can be measured between the first and second locations. The wearable measuring system further includes a signal processing module configured for processing the measured ECG, ICG and PPG signals to determine a blood pressure value.

Various patient monitoring systems, devices, and methods are disclosed for monitoring physiological parameters of a patient. A noninvasive blood pressure monitor can include an inflatable cuff, a pressure transducer, an air pump, and a plurality of air paths connecting the inflatable cuff, the pressure transducer, and the air pump. The monitor can also include an acoustic filter provided along at least one of the air paths. In some cases, the monitor can include first and second air pumps, as well as a processor to independently control operating characteristics of the air pumps. The processor can also control the air pumps so as to provide a first inflation rate for the inflatable cuff during a non-measurement portion of an inflation phase and a second, higher inflation rate during a measurement portion of the inflation phase.

A biological data measurement device has patches. A patch to be mounted on the human body basically includes first and second heat insulators, first and second temperature measurement circuits, and a belt-shaped wiring film (bus wire). Therefore, the configuration is simple. For example, a thickness can be approximately several mm, and a weight can be approximately several grams. The patch is easily mounted on the human body, and is inexpensive. The patch is equipped with a selection circuit, and selectively outputs a temperature signal of a first thermometer and a temperature signal of a second thermometer at a predetermined timing. Accordingly, even in a case where the patches are mounted on a plurality of locations of the human body, the number of wires is settled by the number required for one patch. The number of wires can be significantly reduced, compared to the number of wires in the related art.

A blood pressure monitoring device configured to attach and supply air to a blood pressure cuff can include a housing having an interior, a port configured to enable fluid communication between the interior of the housing and an interior of the blood pressure cuff, and an air intake configured to allow ambient air to enter the interior of the housing and further configured to inhibit liquids from entering the interior of the housing. The air intake can define a non-linear passageway for ambient air to enter the interior of the housing. The housing can have a first side and a first inner wall. The air intake can be defined by a first opening in the first side and a second opening in the first inner wall. The first opening can be not aligned with the second opening.

A blood pressure monitor configured to removably mount to a cuff in a substantially symmetrical position with respect to a width of the cuff can include a housing defining an interior, a first port, and a second port. The first port can: secure to a first prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in a first orientation; receive and secure to a second prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in a second orientation; and enable fluid communication between the interior and at least one of a first fluid passage within the first prong and a second fluid passage within the second prong. The second port can: secure to the second prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in the first orientation; and receive and secure to the first prong of the cuff when the cuff is mounted in the second orientation.

An electrocardiogram device configured to transmit at least one signal responsive to a wearer's cardiac electrical activity can include a disposable portion and a reusable portion configured to mechanically and electrically mate with each other. The disposable portion can include a base having at least one mechanical connector portion, a plurality of cables and corresponding external ECG electrodes, and a first plurality of electrical connectors associated with the plurality of cables. The reusable portion can include a cover having at least one mechanical connector portion, a second plurality of electrical connectors configured to electrically connect with the first plurality of electrical connectors of the disposable portion, and an output connector port configured to transmit at least one signal responsive to one or more signals outputted by the external ECG electrodes of the disposable portion.
