DETECTION AND MONITORING OF ABDOMINAL AORTIC ANEURYSM Russian patent published in 2016 - IPC A61B5/02 

FIELD: medical equipment.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to medical equipment. Device for testing a subject for detecting a state of a vascular pathology of the subject, comprising sensor designed to take up signal representing pulsation in an amount of blood in a subject's body, a unit of signal of the sensor to receive the sensor signal. Signal of the sensor has a DC component. Comparator compares the signal of the sensor with a reference signal. Reference signal is the signal of sensor obtained in earlier moment in time when testing a subject. Increasing value of DC component in a signal of the sensor indicates that the aneurysm grows. User interface transmits result based on comparison of the reference signal and direct current component to the user of device. Method of testing subject to assess the progress of the condition of aortic aneurysm is disclosed.

EFFECT: invention provides increase of accuracy of non-invasive studies to determine vascular pathology.
