Sphygmomanometer is a human blood pressure measuring device which has several types such as mercury, digital, and aneroid. At this time, mercury Sphygmomanometer is not allowed to be used anymore considering the side effects of mercury which can harm the skin and even respiration. This study helps to reduce the use of mercury type Sphygmomanometer. The researchers make arduino TFT LCD display based Sphyhmomanometer so that the use of mercury can be reduced and make it easier for users to process measurement. The researchers used the oscillmetry method in making the device to calculate the systolic and diastolic pressure. The result of blood pressure measurement has a systolic error rate of 0,08% and a diastolic error rate 0,09%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
