Abstract : Blood pressure (BP) is an important vital sign that needs to be monitored regularly to maintain a healthy life. A normal blood pressure is crucial for life and a consistent variation in that can lead to critical health conditions such as kidney failure, cerebral infarction, hypertension and cardiovascular diseases which can be fatal. Hypertension is one of the major reasons for premature death worldwide. An effective non-obtrusive mechanism for continuous monitoring of BP is necessary for the early detection and prevention of fatal events. In this paper, we present the design, development and validation of a neural network based computational model for continuous BP monitoring using photoplethysmograph (PPG) data from the University of Guilin.
