Pulse diagnostic device and method of measuring a pulse wave using this device
First Claim
1. A pulse diagnostic device, comprising:
- at least one pulse wave sensor, said at least one pulse wave sensor having an amplitude-frequency response and adapted to be mounted on the inside of the wrist in the Cyn, Gyan and Chi points on an arterial artery for generating a pulse wave signal;
means for correcting the amplitude-frequency response of said pulse wave sensor to obtain a pulse wave signal of a prescribed shape containing a set of characteristic half-waves;
a pulse wave signal processing unit coupled to the pulse wave sensor, said pulse wave signal processing unit processing the set of characteristic half-waves, said pulse wave signal processing unit incorporating;
an amplifier, having an input serving as said input of said pulse wave signal processing unit, and an output;
an analog-to-digital converter, connected to said output of said amplifier;
an analyzer of the pulse wave signal shape, said analyzer comparing amplitudinal and temporal relationships between the characteristic half-waves, said analyzer having an input, connected to said output of said analog-to-digital converter, and having an output serving as said output of said pulse wave signal processing unit; and
a register, having a first input connected to said output of said pulse wave signal processing unit, said register registering the set of characteristic half-waves.

Abstract
A pulse diagnostic device has a pulse wave sensor, a pulse wave signal processing unit and a register--all connected in series. The sensor is provided with means for correcting its amplitude-frequency response to obtain a prescribed shape of the pulse wave signal. The processing unit has an amplifier, an analog-to-digital converter and an analyzer all connected in series for analyzing of the pulse wave signal shape according to prescribed parameters. The method of measuring a pulse wave using the pulse diagnostic device resides in the fact that the sensor is pressed to the wrist in the Cyn, Gyan and Chi points, regulating the force of pressure; in so doing, one creates a pressure force by hand and regulates the position of the sensor corresponding to the measurement of a surface and/or deep or full pulse, until the first maximum value of the maximum amplitude of a signal appears to be visually received in the register.

8. A method for measuring a pulse wave by means of a pulse diagnostic device, comprising a pulse wave sensor and a register, electrically connected to said pulse wave sensor, including the following operations:
-
pressing the pulse wave sensor to the wrists in the Cyn, Gyan and Chi points, reflecting the condition of internal organs and systems effected by the force created by hand; regulation of the force of said pressure to install the pulse wave sensor in the positions corresponding to measurement of the surface and/or deep pulses;
said regulation effected until a first maximum value of the maximum amplitude of the pulse wave signal is visually perceived in the register; andcorrecting the amplitude response of the pulse wave signal from the pulse wave sensor to contain multiple characteristic half-waves. - View Dependent Claims (9)
