Abstract: In this article, we discuss the validity of noninvasive continuous blood pressure estimation with two different types of peripheral pulse waves. Artery-blocking experiment shows that phase difference of two pulse waves at the same location is well related with blood pressure and blood flow fluctuation. Exercise-recovery experiment resulting from 16 subjects shows that phase difference varies with blood pressure with the correlation from 0.63 to 0.88 when blood pressure changes rapidly. Simulations based on a classic hemodynamic model verify the relationship between phase difference and blood pressure. However, phase difference is strongly correlated with smooth muscle state of the arterial wall as well. If smooth muscle information can be obtained by further study, phase difference can act as a promising approach to portable and wearable device for real-time blood pressure monitoring.
