Abstract:
The present invention relates to an analysis system and method for pulse diagnosis in Chinese medicine, which analyzes quantitatively the variances of pulse condition, and in particular analyzes the “pulse POSITION”, “pulse PACE”, “pulse FORM” and “pulse DYNAMICS” elements in pulse condition with remarkable increase in the accuracy of pulse diagnosis. The analysis system for pulse diagnosis of the present invention comprises a pulse signal collecting device to collect and generate blood pressure and electrocardiogram signals; and a signal process unit to receive and analyze the blood pressure signal series and electrocardiogram signal series. The execution of the signal process unit includes: establishing the position parameters based on measurement of the blood pressure signals, the heart rate parameters based on calculation of the blood pressure or electrocardiogram signals, the wave form parameters based on analysis of the blood pressure signals, the spectrum analysis parameters based on heart rate variability (HRV) and arterial pressure variability (APV), and the quantitative indexes of the elements in pulse condition of Chinese medicine based on the parameters mentioned above.
