Video-based estimation of blood pressure. by Ananyananda Dasari, Laszlo A Jeni, Conrad S Tucker

“…We leverage the time difference of the blood pulse arrival at two different locations in the body (Pulse Transit Time) and the inverse relation between the blood pressure and the velocity of blood pressure pulse propagation in the artery to analytically estimate the blood pressure. Through statistical hypothesis testing, we demonstrate that Pulse Transit Time-based approaches to estimate blood pressure require knowledge of subject specific blood vessel parameters, such as the length of the blood vessel. …”
