    Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems for determining an estimated pulse wave velocity of an artery of a subject. Embodiment methods may include applying a series of counter pressures, measuring a first parameter related to pulse wave velocity, estimating a second parameter in a model, and determining the estimated pulse wave velocity. The counter pressures may be applied at a set location on the subject over the artery with a pressure device. Each of the counter pressures may be different from one another, applied at the set location, and between zero and a diastolic pressure of the subject. The first parameter may be measured when each of the series of counter pressures is applied. The model may establish a relationship of the first parameter measured to each of the series of counter pressures. The estimated pulse wave velocity may be determined based on the second parameter estimated in the model.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices of various embodiments enable measurement of blood pressure from an artery. The various embodiments may measure, using a non-interfering arterial measurement sensor, a first change in distension of the artery at a measurement location without interference to an arterial pressure at the measurement location during a series of pulses. A first pulse rate and estimated pulse pressures may be determined from the first change in distension. A coefficient may be determined fitting an exponentially decaying function representing an exponential decay of a portion of a diastolic phase to select ones of the estimated pulse pressures corresponding to the diastolic phase. An absolute blood pressure may be determined by applying the coefficient to a select mathematical model expressing a first relationship between the first change in distension of the artery and the pulse pressure in the artery at the measurement location.

    Abstract: An optical sensor and a method of using the optical sensor in an optical measuring device that measures cardiovascular properties and compensates for movement artifacts by directing a sheet of light towards an artery. The optical sensor may include one or more light sources, one or more transmit light guides coupled to the one or more light sources and configured to direct light from the one or more light sources as a sheet of light towards an artery, such that the cross-sectional profile of the sheet of light may have a length transverse to a longitudinal direction of the artery that is longer than the diameter of the artery. The optical sensor may include one or more light detectors configured to receive backscattered light and generate an output based on the received backscattered light that is a reflection of the sheet of light from the artery and surrounding tissues.
