Abstract
Systems and methods for receiving galvanic skin response data from a galvanic skin response sensor that includes multiple electrodes fastened to a hand of a human; monitoring the galvanic skin response data to determine a time for initiating a Blood Pressure (BP) measurement using a blood pressure measurement cuff worn by the human (e.g., in a continuous or on-demand BP measurement mode); at the determined time, initiating the blood pressure measurement using the blood pressure measurement cuff; receiving blood pressure data for the human that results from the blood pressure measurement; and storing a blood pressure value that is based on the blood pressure data.
Claims20
A system, comprising:
- a band configured to be worn on a wrist of a human;
- a wireless communications interface attached to the band;
- a blood pressure measurement cuff attached to the band;
- and
- a galvanic skin response sensor, comprising two electrodes that are configured to be worn on a hand of the human, in which the galvanic skin response sensor is attached to the band.
A method comprising:
- receiving galvanic skin response data from a galvanic skin response sensor that includes two electrodes fastened to a hand of a human;
- monitoring the galvanic skin response data to determine a time for initiating a blood pressure measurement using a blood pressure measurement cuff worn by the human;
- at the determined time, initiating the blood pressure measurement using the blood pressure measurement cuff;
