A method for measurement and visual display of blood pressure measurement values, comprising a) application of a suitable blood pressure measuring cuff as a pressure sensor around a limb of a test subject and sufficient filling with a pump; b) letting the pressure out of the measuring cuff by means of an electronically controlled valve during blood pressure measurement, the electronically controlled valve being open- and closed-loop controlled by means of a processor for individual input signals in real time in such a way that a pressure drop constant over time is ensured over the entire measured pressure range; c) conversion of the analogue measurement signals of the measuring cuff in an analogue-to-digital converter; and d) processing of the digital measurement signals by the processor, characterised in that the digital measurement signals are processed as follows by means of the processor: - representation of the digital measurement signals as a rising pulse curve, - correction of the pulse curve, wherein, by including a correction curve in the calculation, the pulse curve is brought onto a virtual zero line and representation of a corrected pulse curve, wherein the correction curve results, for every value of the pulse curve, from the following derivation: if (Dactual + Cn-1) > 2 then Cn = Cn-1+1 if (Dactual + Cn-1) < 2 then Cn = Cn-1-1 - determination of the position and height of each pulse of the corrected pulse curve by specification of a threshold value, wherein each of the pulses a) must have a minimum width, b) may not exceed a maximum width, c) must have a minimum height, d) may not exceed a maximum height; - use of the established positions and pulse heights of the pulses as a control curve of a Bezier curve as a normalised higher-order curve; - calculation and representation of an upper and a lower envelope curve from the maxima and minima of the normalised curve. a) application of a suitable blood pressure measuring cuff as a pressure sensor around a limb of a test subject and sufficient filling with a pump; b) letting the pressure out of the measuring cuff by means of an electronically controlled valve during blood pressure measurement, the electronically controlled valve being open- and closed-loop controlled by means of a processor for individual input signals in real time in such a way that a pressure drop constant over time is ensured over the entire measured pressure range; c) conversion of the analogue measurement signals of the measuring cuff in an analogue-to-digital converter; and d) processing of the digital measurement signals by the processor, - representation of the digital measurement signals as a rising pulse curve, - correction of the pulse curve, wherein, by including a correction curve in the calculation, the pulse curve is brought onto a virtual zero line and representation of a corrected pulse curve, wherein the correction curve results, for every value of the pulse curve, from the following derivation: if (Dactual + Cn-1) > 2 then Cn = Cn-1+1 if (Dactual + Cn-1) < 2 then Cn = Cn-1-1 if (Dactual + Cn-1) > 2 then Cn = Cn-1+1 if (Dactual + Cn-1) < 2 then Cn = Cn-1-1 - determination of the position and height of each pulse of the corrected pulse curve by specification of a threshold value, wherein each of the pulses a) must have a minimum width, b) may not exceed a maximum width, c) must have a minimum height, d) may not exceed a maximum height; a) must have a minimum width, b) may not exceed a maximum width, c) must have a minimum height, d) may not exceed a maximum height; - use of the established positions and pulse heights of the pulses as a control curve of a Bezier curve as a normalised higher-order curve; - calculation and representation of an upper and a lower envelope curve from the maxima and minima of the normalised curve.
