Inventor(s) include Rantanen, Antti Aleksi; Prkk, Juha Pekka; Koskimki, Heli Tuulia; Heikkinen, Olli Petteri; Mkinen, Jukka Tapani; Jrvel, Jussi Petteri; Koivisto, Hannu Hermanni; Ohukainen, Pauli Juhani; and Syrjl, Juha-Pekka.

The application for the patent was published on Oct. 10, under issue no. 41/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Methods, systems, and devices for determining blood pressure based on morphological features of pulses are described. A system may include a wearable device that uses one or more light emitting components configured to emit light, one or more photodetectors configured to receive light, and a controller that couples the one or more light emitting components to the one or more photodetectors. The wearable device may transmit lights associated with multiple wavelengths, and acquire photoplethysmogram (PPG) data that includes one or more PPG waveforms associated with the respective wavelengths. The system may determine respective sets of morphological features associated with each of the PPG waveforms based on systolic and diastolic peaks corresponding to the heartbeat of the user. The system may determine one or more blood pressure metrics for the user based at least in part on a comparison of the respective sets of morphological features."

The patent application was internationally filed on Mar. 27, 2023, under International application No.PCT/US2023/016432.
