Abstract Hypertension, commonly known as high blood pressure, is a major concern for people globally and in Malaysia. The hypertensive patient must commute to the hospital visiting their physician regularly for blood pressure (BP) monitoring using a cuff-based device. The patient may feel uncomfortable and pain when the device inflates the cuff and tightens around the arm for a BP measurement. Hence, to overcome this problem, this paper proposed a cuffless BP measurement using pulse transit time (PTT). In this method, a delay time between the peak of Photoplethysmogram (PPG) signals at the fingertip and the earlobe were correlated with BP. These signals were transferred to a computer via Arduino uno microcontroller and analyzed by the MATLAB R2019a software. A preliminary result shows that the developed system is able to record PTT and display the estimated BP value on the ThingSpeak webpage and ThingView apps. With the IoT platform, the cuffless BP can be monitor remotely, and the results can be store on the cloud healthcare system for hypertensive management.
