Abstract
In this study electrical impedance plethysmograph was developed and each ten digital blood flow was measured for eight nomal males and a patient tvith digital arterial reconstruction surgery. Blood flow of the digit with surgery was approximately fourty percent compared to that of the other normal digit. For the normal subjects, right - handed subjects generally have larger blood flow in right fingers than that in left fingers while it was reverse for the left - handed subjects. The relative average magnitude of the digltal blood flow Is the third, first, second, fourth, and fifth digit in descending order for the left and rich hand, respectively. Blood flow of the fifth digit for all subjec!s except one was the smallest among the five digits.
