Title: Arrhythmia detector
Inventor: AMANO KAZUHIKO
IPC: A61B5/024
Filed: 1997-04-17
Granted: 1999-12-11
Abstract: An arrhythmia detector includes pulse wave detection means for non-invasively detecting the waveform of a pulse wave and arrhythmia detection means for monitoring the change of waveform and detecting arrhythmia. The arrhythmia detection means includes judgment means for judging the occurrence of arrhythmia when the continuity of change is interrupted. Means for examining the continuity includes means of time domain which uses the intervals of pulse waves and means of frequency domain which makes a frequency analysis (FET or wavelet conversion) and examines the continuity on the basis of the analysis results. Arrhythmia is detected by a simpler construction and an easier operation than electrocardiographs. It is also possible to use body motion detection means for detecting body motion and outputting a body motion waveform, and to determine the continuity of change for the pulse wave component obtained by eliminating the body motion component from the waveform of the pulse wave detected by the pulse wave detection means. Therefore, arrhythmia is detected more accurately in daily life.
