Abstract
Purpose: A study of the effectiveness of the UV-101DS, that can measure the blood pressure (BP) at a finger.
Method: An object of the research are total 34 in and out patients who undergoing oral surgery of ASA Risk I-II and 10 healthy volunteers.
All patients were sedated by the Inhalation of nitrous oxide or by the intravenous administration of Midazolam.
Results: No significant difference were observed in BP between two groups.
The comparison of BP of senile group above 65 years with the group below 65 years indicated no significant.
Another study was made on 10 healthy volunteers at a sitting position whether the observed values were affected by thoracic sensor moved up and down.
The results showed that in case of moving a thoracic sensor by 10 cm down gave a rise of systolic BP by 6.1% and a rise of diastolic BP by 7.8%.
The difference being significant for descent the thoracic sensor.
