Abstract:
1. A blood pressure manometer, comprising: a blood pressure measuring portion configured to measure a subject's blood pressure from either of the subject's left and right regions to obtain blood pressure data; a first communication part having a light emitting element, the first communication part being configured so that the light emitting element sends an infrared signal including the blood pressure data; a body comprising the blood pressure measuring portion and the first communication part; a second communication part having a light receiving element, the second communication part being configured so that the light receiving element receives the infrared signal including the blood pressure data from the first communication part; a display part configured to display the subject's blood pressure based on the blood pressure data included in the infrared signal received by the light receiving element; and a separate display which is separated from the body and comprises the second communication part and the display part; wherein: the light emitting element is supported by the body to be opposite the subject even if the blood pressure measuring portion measures the subject's blood pressure from any of the subject's left and right regions; and the light receiving element is supported by the separate display to receive the infrared signal which is sent from the light emitting element to be reflected on a main body portion of the subject, the main body portion comprising a breast and an abdomen of the subject, wherein the light emitting element is located at a front side of the body that is opposite the subject, and the light receiving element is located at a front side of the separate display that is opposite the subject when the display part is opposite the subject, and wherein the light emitting element directs the infrared signal towards the subject to be reflected off of the subject.
