A new method of measuring blood pressure has been proposed, which is based on the relationship between blood pressure and pulse wave velocity that passes artery wall. We paid attention to this method as this one was very advantageous to miniaturize the blood measuring instrument. We have developed a circuit to measure pulse wave velocity which can be transduced into blood pressure value. Furthemore we have brought Casio brand blood pressuer monitor watch to the market, of which circuit is miniaturized into one chip LSI. The constitution and the blood monitoring operation of this watch are described in this Paper.
