Noninvasive Blood Pressure Monitoring and Hemodynamics via Cuff Sensor
BIOPAC offers noninvasive blood pressure and hemodynamic monitoring systems for human and animal applications.
Human ‐ NIBP Finger Sensor Systems
The NIBP100D provides a continuous, beat‐to‐beat, blood pressure signal recorded from the fingers of a subject. The system outputs a continuous blood pressure waveform that is similar to a direct arterial pressure waveform using a double finger sensor that is easy to place on the hand. The cuffs (included with system) come in three sizes. Parameters displayed: BP wave and BP
values (Sys, Dia, MAP) and pulse rate Learn more here (direct link to:
http://www.biopac.com/product/noninvasive‐blood‐pressure‐amplifier/)
The NIBP100D‐HD includes the enhanced configuration and provides the full continuous hemodynamic parameter set completely noninvasively.
Parameters displayed: BP wave and BP values (Sys, Dia, MAP), PR plus hemodynamic parameters PPV, SVV, CO, CI, SV,SI, SVR, and SVRI

HOW DOES NIBP100D WORK?
METHODS:
1. CONTINUOUS BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT
The system employs an enhanced vascular unloading technique to measure blood pressure at the fingers. A refined version of the Penáz’ principle is used to deliver a continuous noninvasive blood pressure signal. The method is based on concentrically interlocking control loops for accurate long‐term readings of finger blood pressure.
Long term measurements are made possible through double barrel design of the finger sensor
(measurement switches between fingers in preset intervals).

unloading‐technique)
2. NBP UPPER ARM MEASUREMENT
Automatic delivery of reference values at heart level for calibration purposes: finger blood
pressure is automatically calibrated to upper arm measurement to provide absolute values.
CALIBRATION:
The NIBP100D is calibrated using a standard blood pressure cuff that is placed around the subject’s upper
arm. The unit automatically takes a blood pressure measurement from the subject and uses the value for
calibration purposes. During the calibration process the system locates the pulse at the finger and performs a
partial occlusion. It will switch from one finger to the next during the course of the recording to relieve the
pressure from the occluded finger. The interval between finger rotations is user‐selectable and can be as long
as 60 minutes. During the rotation, the system takes another calibration reading to ensure that values are
accurate.
