Patent ID: 11660066

Abstract:
Some implementations of the disclosure are directed to an ultrasound measurement device including: multiple ultrasound sensors to capture tomographical information of a physiological structure, each ultrasound sensor comprising a transducer having a respective resonant frequency, where each transducer has a frequency response that partially overlaps with a frequency response of another transducer; and a processing device to control and process measurements made by the ultrasound sensors. The device may be incorporated in an adhesive substrate configured to be adhered to a patient's skin in alignment with an artery of the patient. The processing device may use the multiple ultrasound sensors to compute the mean arterial pressure through the artery by performing operations of: measuring a circumference of the artery using the multiple ultrasound sensors; measuring a blood flow velocity using the same ultrasound sensors; and computing the mean arterial pressure using the measured arterial circumference and blood flow velocity.
