Methodology: The pneumatic cuff is attached to the root of the index finger. The sensor cuff is attached several centimeters distal to the pneumatic cuff. Measurement is taken for a 60-second control period, and then the pneumatic cuff is inflated to above-systolic blood pressure (200 mm Hg) for 180 seconds, and measurement is taken during this period of time. The cuff is then deflated, and another 60-second measurement is taken. Data is collected by the measuring device for later analysis.
