PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a management apparatus which allows a user to easily perform the function inspection of an electronic sphygmomanometer and to perform calibration even when the user has no expert knowledge.SOLUTION: A calibration device 8 is connected with a sphygmomanometer 1 by an air tube 10 and a communication cable 11. When the connection is detected, the calibration device 8 closes the valve 22 of the sphygmomanometer 1 and its own valve 812, applies pressure inside the air tube 10, measures the pressure thereof, and determines the air leakage of the sphygmomanometer 1 on the basis of a pressure change in an air leakage determination part 802. Also, the calibration device 8 makes the pressure sensor 23 of the sphygmomanometer 1 measure internal pressure, receives a measurement result in a communication I/F 815, and determines the result of the instrument error inspection of the sphygmomanometer 1 on the basis of a difference between the applied pressure and the internal pressure in an instrumental error determination part 804. When rejection in the instrumental error test is determined to have failed, a control signal is outputted to the sphygmomanometer 1 in a calibration part 805, and the output value of the pressure sensor 23 is calibrated.COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT【課題】専門知識を有しなくても容易に電子血圧計の機能検査を行ない、校正を行なうことのできる管理装置を提供する。【解決手段】校正装置8は血圧計1とエア管10および通信ケーブル11で接続される。校正装置8は、接続が検知されると、血圧計1の弁22および自身の弁812を閉塞させてエア管10内に印加して圧力を測定し、漏気判断部802で圧力変化に基づいて血圧計1の漏気を判断する。また、校正装置8は、血圧計1の圧力センサ23に内圧を測定させて通信I/F815で測定結果を受信し、器差判断部804で印加圧力と内圧との差分に基づいて血圧計1の器差検査の結果を判断する。器差検査が不合格と判定された場合、校正部805で血圧計1に対して制御信号を出力し、圧力センサ23の出力値を校正させる。【選択図】図1
