Abstract
An arteriostenosis inspecting apparatus including a left-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device which measures a left-superior-limb blood pressure of a left superior limb of a living subject, a right-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device which measures a right-superior-limb blood pressure of a right superior limb of the subject, and a left-and-right-superior-limb-blood-pressure-ratio determining device which determines a left-and-right-superior-limb blood-pressure ratio as a ratio of one of the left-superior-limb blood pressure and the right-superior-limb blood pressure to the other.
Claims6
An arteriostenosis inspecting apparatus, comprising:
- a left-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device which measures a left-superior-limb blood pressure of a left superior limb of a living subject;
- a right-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device which measures a right-superior-limb blood pressure of a right superior limb of the subject;
- and
- a left-and-right-superior-limb-blood-pressure-ratio determining means for determining a left-and-right-superior-limb blood-pressure ratio as a ratio between the left-superior-limb blood pressure measured by the left-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device and the right-superior-limb blood pressure measured by the right-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device.
An arteriostenosis inspecting apparatus, comprising:
- a left-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device which measures a left-superior-limb blood pressure of a left superior limb of a living subject;
- a right-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device which measures a right-superior-limb blood pressure of a right superior limb of the subject;
- and
- a left-and-right-superior-limb-blood-pressure-ratio determining means for determining a left-and-right-superior-limb blood-pressure ratio as a ratio between the left-superior-limb blood pressure measured by the left-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device and the right-superior-limb blood pressure measured by the right-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device,
- wherein the left-and-right-superior-limb-blood-pressure-ratio determining means determines the left-and-right-superior-limb blood-pressure ratio by using a lower one of the left-superior-limb blood pressure and the right-superior-limb blood pressure as a numerator of said ratio and using a higher one of the left-superior-limb blood pressure and the right-superior-limb blood pressure as a denominator of said ratio.
An arteriostenosis inspecting apparatus, comprising:
- a left-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device which measures a left-superior-limb blood pressure of a left superior limb of a living subject;
- a right-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device which measures a right-superior-limb blood pressure of a right superior limb of the subject;
- and
- a left-and-right-superior-limb-blood-pressure-ratio determining means for determining a left-and-right-superior-limb blood-pressure ratio as a ratio between the left-superior-limb blood pressure measured by the left-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device and the right-superior-limb blood pressure measured by the right-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device,
- wherein the left-and-right-superior-limb-blood-pressure-ratio determining means determines the left-and-right-superior-limb blood-pressure ratio by using a pre-selected one of the left-superior-limb blood pressure and the right-superior-limb blood pressure as a denominator of said ratio.
An arteriostenosis inspecting apparatus, comprising:
- a left-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device which measures a left-superior-limb blood pressure of a left superior limb of a living subject;
- a right-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device which measures a right-superior-limb blood pressure of a right superior limb of the subject;
- and
- a left-and-right-superior-limb-blood-pressure-ratio determining device which determines a left-and-right-superior-limb blood-pressure ratio as a ratio between the left-superior-limb blood pressure measured by the left-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device and the right-superior-limb blood pressure measured by the right-superior-limb-blood-pressure measuring device.
