The Physio Logic® Smart Valve Wrist blood pressure monitor uses the oscillometric method to detect your blood pressure.
Before the cuff starts inflating, the device will establish a baseline cuff pressure, which is equivalent to the air pressure. The measurement of your blood pressure is based on this baseline pressure.
During the deflation of the wrist cuff, the monitor is detecting the pressure oscillations generated by the beat-to-beat pulsatile.
After detecting the amplitude and the slope of the pressure oscillations during the deflation process, the monitor will determine the systolic and diastolic pressures for you, while your pulse rate is detected at the same time.
