Abstract

Blood pressure monitoring system is one of the apparatus that has been use in medical field since long time ago. The design of blood pressure monitoring system was developing and upgrade following the development of technology. Blood pressure monitoring system is use to measure the human blood pressure and hate rate. Normal blood pressure measurement is about 120mmHg/80mmHg. For the upper (systolic), the pressure is 120mmHg while for the bottom (diastolic) is 80mmHg. Nowadays, the counts of patients high and low blood pressure are becoming increase but their always out of time to make an appointment with a doctors to check their health. So, in designing this project, the blood pressure monitoring system was modifying using piezoelectric film sensor to replace the function of the cuff and pressure sensor. Patient will no more feel uncomfortable that created from the cuff of blood pressure during process measurement. The piezoelectric sensor is in rectangular shape and use to measure pulse rate by attach at the wrist patient. Furthermore, the atmega32 microcontroller circuit was used as a main circuit to control amplifier circuit, piezoelectric sensor and the LCD display. The accuracy final output also can be determined by using oscilloscope. This latest blood pressure monitoring was design as user friendly, portable and affordable.
