Abstract
A blood-pressure measuring device includes a resistor having a first end and a second end, a first pressure sensor disposed on the first end and a second pressure sensor disposed on the second side and configured for connection to a blood circuit, wherein the first pressure sensor, the resistor and the second pressure sensor are connected to each other in series. A computing device is connectable to the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor and is configured to perform a plausibility check by comparing measurement results of the first pressure sensor and of the second pressure sensor.

A blood-pressure measuring device comprising:
- a resistor having a first end and a second end;
- a first pressure sensor disposed on the first end of the resistor;
- a second pressure sensor disposed on the second side of the resistor and configured for connection to a blood circuit, wherein the first pressure sensor, the resistor and the second pressure sensor are connected to each other in series;
- a computing device connectable to the first pressure sensor and the second pressure sensor and configured to perform a plausibility check by comparing measurement results of the first pressure sensor and of the second pressure sensor.
A method for performing a plausibility check on a blood-pressure measuring device having a resistor, a rinsing device, and a blood circuit, the method comprising:
- measuring a first pressure between the resistor and the rinsing device;
- measuring a second pressure between the resistor and the blood circuit,
