MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY FOR INNOVATIVE DIAGNOSTICS

ABPMpro

AMBULATORY LONG-TERM
BLOOD PRESSURE MEASUREMENT

TRADITION
MEETS
INNOVATION

  • ABPMpro on patient - high patient comfort
    Simple application: The ABPMpro slides directly on to the cuff. Without any tube needed, it provides high patient comfort.

ABPMpro: Oscillometric 24-hour Blood Pressure Measurement

The ABPMpro is a compact and easy-to-use, long-term blood pressure monitor
that provides higher diagnostic value by simultaneously and continuously recording
actigraphy, body position and heart rate.

With external sensors, the ABPMpro is modularly upgradeable to a Holter ECG and
for continuous blood pressure measurement based on the Pulse Transit Time (PTT).
When all external sensors are applied, the measurement method (oscillometric / PTT)
can be chosen individually or both methods can even be combined.

The ABPMpro at a glance

Ambulatory long-term blood pressure measurement
Tradition meets Innovation

Why should you choose ABPMpro?

Compact:
Device slides directly on to the cuff

High patient comfort. Easy application.
No tube needed!

Measurement during inflation
and/or deflation

Back-up measurement during deflation if some artefacts occur during inflation.
Increased information due to twice the number of measurement values

Internal sensor for activity
and body position

Sleep-wake-estimation, precise
classification of dipping / non-dipping.

Correlation of blood pressure to
activity and body position

Pre-programmed
measurement intervals

3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 and 60 minutes programmable.
Sound signal before measurement start

Graphical display of
inflation/deflation process 

Shows the inflation process in the software for a verification of the measured blood pressure values

ABPMpro is validated according to AAMI/ESH/ISO Universal Standard

External sensors

3-Channel ECG sensor (Holter)

  • Integrated body position sensor (thorax)
  • Impedance cardiography for determination of
    – Breathing frequency (Central apneas / Cheyne-Stokes breathing)
    – Pre-ejection period (PEP)
  • Alternatively: pacemaker detection
Application of ABPMpro with 3-channel ECG

Plethysmography sensor

  • Detection of pulse wave
  • Pulse wave analysis (PWA)
  • Detection of autonomous arousal based on the pleth signal
Application of ABPMpro with 3-channel ECG and pleth sensor

When using both sensors:

Continuous, non-invasive blood pressure measurement WITHOUT inflation of the cuff
based on the pulse transit time (PTT)

  • Systolic / diastolic blood pressure values (in mmHg), beat-to-beat
  • Heartbeat-precise representation of the blood pressure curve with all minima and maxima
  • Detection of NBPF (Nocturnal Blood Pressure Fluctuations)
  • No falsification of the measured values – no disturbance of sleep, no resulting blood pressure increase

Calculation of the pulse wave velocity (PWV) as a measure of arterial stiffness

Flexible blood pressure measurement methods: Individual choice of measurement method or combination of both methods (oscillometric / PTT)
