초록
ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to determine whether a pulse analyzer was useful to characterize the variablesof pulse wave of hypertension (HT), compared with those of normal blood pressure group (NP). MethodsThe subjects were 22,646 who worked at car manufacturing factory. The pulse wave variables and pulse typesmeasured in Guan by DMP 1000. ResultsIn the main and secondary pulse type, there were significant differences between HT and NP. Whereas, in thefield of pulse wave variables, no specific differences were between HT and NP. ConclusionAlthough pulse wave variables were not statistically significant, pulse analyzer might have reliable diagnosticsensitivity between hypertension and non-hypertension population.
