Abstract

A portable blood pressure measuring device comprises a casing, a pressure sensor sensing oscillations in pressure from a cuff attached to a user, and a microprocessor for determining blood pressure based on the oscillations in pressure sensed by the pressure sensor. A signal converter provided in the casing converts data from the pressure sensor into data for the microprocessor. A voice processor provided in the casing receives data from the microprocessor and generates a voice signal indicative of the blood pressure sensed by the pressure sensor.
