Filed:

May 19, 2009
Appl. No.:

12/468438
Inventors:

Robert L. Vivenzio - Auburn NY, US
Ian K. Edwards - Skaneateles NY, US
Raymond A. Lia - Auburn NY, US
Jeffrey Perkins - Tully NY, US

International Classification:

A61B 5/02
B65D 83/08
US Classification:

600490, 221 45
Abstract:

A blood pressure cuff is defined by a sleeve member, a portion of which is inflatable and made from a fluid impermeable material. An exterior port of the sleeve directly and fluidly interconnects with the interior of said inflatable portion, wherein a slotted portion is aligned with the port to receive the port when the cuff is wrapped about the limb of a patient. The slotted portion is sized to provide a range of cuff sizes wherein the cuff can be entirely made from a biodegradable or recyclable material. A plurality of cuffs can be packaged for sequential dispensing thereof.

International Classification:

A61B 5/022
US Classification:

600490
Abstract:

A blood pressure cuff is defined by a first sheet, having an opening, and a second sheet. The second sheet is attached to a bottom of the first sheet to form an interior inflatable portion between the first sheet and the second sheet, with the opening of the first sheet fluidly interconnecting the interior inflatable portion with an exterior of the cuff. The blood pressure cuff is made from a single type of material and can be recycled, biodegradable, or composted.

Filed:

Sep 7, 2012
Appl. No.:

13/606967
Inventors:

Shawn C. St. Pierre - Syracuse NY, US
Sean R. Karla - Syracuse NY, US
Lari E. Rutherford - Jamesville NY, US
Assignee:

Welch Allyn, Inc. - Skaneateles Falls NY
International Classification:

A61B 5/022
US Classification:

600490
Abstract:

Systems and methods for correlating diagnostic readings obtained by at least two medical devices can include a pressure offset correction parameter that is calculated for the purpose of correlating oscillometric blood pressure readings between a “home” blood pressure monitor and an “office” blood pressure monitor. The offset correction parameter is used to adjust blood pressure readings of the “home” or “office” blood pressure monitor such that these readings can be validly compared with blood pressure readings obtained using the other blood pressure monitor. In this manner, a more complete and reliable blood pressure trend may be developed and used for managing blood pressure related medical conditions.
