Abstract
A biological information measuring apparatus and a biological information measuring method are provided. The biological information measuring apparatus includes a pulsation information detecting unit configured to detect heartbeat information relating to a heartbeat of a subject, a blood pressure waveform measuring unit configured to measure a blood pressure waveform of the subject in an invasive manner, and a calculating unit configured to detect a cardiac cycle from the heartbeat information and to calculate, based on a detection of a maximal blood pressure value of the blood pressure waveform in the cardiac cycle, at least one of a systolic pressure of the subject, an end-diastolic pressure of the subject, an augmentation pressure of an IABP (intra-aortic balloon pumping), a systolic pressure assisted by the IABP and an end-diastolic pressure assisted by the IABP.
