Biosignals collected by wearable devices, such as electrocardiogram and photoplethysmogram, exhibit redundancy global temporal dependencies, posing a challenge in extracting discriminative features for blood pressure (BP) estimation. To address this challenge, we propose HGCTNet, handcrafted feature-guided CNN transformer network cuffless BP measurement based on devices. By leveraging convolutional operations self-attention mechanisms, design CNN-Transformer hybrid architecture to learn from biosignals that capture both local information dependencies. Then, introduce attention module utilizes extracted query vectors eliminate redundant within the learned features. Finally, feature fusion integrates features, demographics enhance model performance. We validate our approach using two large datasets: CAS-BP dataset Aurora-BP dataset. Experimental results demonstrate HGCTNet achieves an estimation error of 0.9 $\pm$ 6.5 mmHg diastolic (DBP) 0.7 8.3 systolic (SBP) On dataset, corresponding errors are notation="LaTeX">$-$ 0.4 7.0 DBP 8.6 SBP. Compared current state-of-the-art approaches, reduces mean absolute SBP 10.68% 9.84% These highlight potential improving performance measurements.

Abstract Wearable sensors to continuously measure blood pressure and derived cardiovascular variables have the potential revolutionize patient monitoring. Current wearable methods analyzing time components (e.g., pulse transit time) still lack clinical accuracy, whereas existing technologies for direct measurement are too bulky. Here we present an innovative art of continuous noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring (CNAP2GO). It directly measures by using a volume control technique could be used small integrated in finger-ring. As software prototype, CNAP2GO showed excellent performance comparison with invasive reference measurements 46 patients having surgery. The resulting pulsatile signal carries information derive cardiac output other variables. We show that can self-calibrate miniaturized approaches. potentially constitutes breakthrough flow both ambulatory in-hospital settings.
