Abstract
As an attempt to characterize the pulse behaviors at the three pulse diagnosis positions in the oriental medicine which are called Chon, Gwan, and Cheok, we measure the pluse waveforms by SphygmoCor apparatus, that has been used widely for the evaluation of the arterial stiffness, and examine the Augmentation Index (AIx) at the aorta. For the study, twenty healthy men at the age of twenties have participated as the subject group. The pulse has been measured twice at the three palpation positions, and by two-way repeated measures ANOVA we tested the repeatability and the mean differences in the aortic AIx between Chon, Gwan, and Cheok. The AIx was found to be statistically different between the measurement positions. Duncan's test shows that the AIx is statistically different between Chon and the other two positions. Our study may be used as a reference for further scientific quantification of the pulse diagnosis.
