Object : Pulse feeling(脈診) belongs to pulse feeling or palpation(切診) of methods of diagnosis in oriental medical terminology. Pulse appears at bio-energy condition of body, so it is a important part of disease diagnosis but we have been trouble in diagnosis by difficulty of pulse feeling(脈診). Methods : We investigate the books about pulse feeling, which are involved "Hwangjenaegyong", "Nangyong", "Maggyeng" etc. Conclusion : According to these, this paper helps you understand pulse feeling(脈診) through comparision and studying pulse condition at clasics with electro pulse machine.

Although the pulse diagnosis is the one of the most important diagnostic process to traditional medical doctors, there is no proper communication tool between experts and trainees. In this paper, we have developed a indentation training system which consists of a hardware measuring indent pressure on artificial arm quantitatively and a software providing a indentation training program. The hardware for measurement of indent pressure profile includes 3 load cells embedded in the artificial arm, signal amplification part and digitization part, NI-USB 6009 with 200Hz sampling rate. For setting up a relationship table between weights and output voltages, 8 standard weights were used. To evaluate this hardware, 3 oriental medical specialists were involved and their indent pressure profile were recorded three times respectively. From these, it was found that pulse diagnosis process could be divided into 3 periods and the maximum load were $500g{\cdot}f$ approximately while doctors perform a pulse diagnosis. The indentation training program was implemented with LabView and designed to monitor the differences between the pressure profile of a expert and that of a trainee so to offer some visual feedback to the trainee. Also, this program could provide the trends of training performances. With this developed system, the education of pulse diagnosis is expected to be more quantitative and effective.

Diagnostic method by taking pulse is generally accepted as a clinical diagnosis of today. Theoretical foundation of the method was laid by "Hwangjenaegyeong" and "Nangyeong". Since then, it was quoted by "Sanghallon" and systematically applied to diagnoses by making a diagnosis in the light of pulse condition and symptoms observed so that the original form of the method was shaped thereby. And therefore, theoretical significance of diagnostic method by taking pulse was drawn in this paper to define the theory of pulse feeling. Furthermore, this paper is corroborative of that the purpose of diagnostic method by taking pulse is to diagnose pyo-lee and jang-bu; wind-cold-warmth-heat; and deficiency and excess of gi and blood as well as substantially prove it with the texts of "Sanghallon".

The acupuncture procedures in Hwangjenaekyung (黃帝內經) was different to modern ones in many aspects. Especially, the role of pulse diagnosis in acupuncture was totally different and the pulse diagnosis was essential part in acupuncture therapy in Hwangjenaekyung era. We found four noteworthy features on the pulse diagnosis before and after acupuncture in Hwangjenaekyung : (1) Pulse diagnosis was a mandatory process in acupuncture (2) Doctors who used pulse diagnosis in 12 meridians (十二經脈遍診脈法), pulse diagnosis in 9 points of 3 body parts (三部九候脈法), and comparative pulse diagnosis between radial artery and carotid artery (人迎寸口對比脈法) followed the former rule ((1)). (3) The major pulse features to detect before and after acupuncture were conversion between the vacuous pulse (虛脈) and the replete pulse (實脈), and conversion between slippery pulse (滑脈) and rough pulse (澁脈). (4) Deukki (得氣, Deqi) was synonym of Kiji (氣至), and it referred to the changes of arterial pulse, not the sensation followed by acupuncture manipulation.

Modern Objectification of Pulse Diagnosis, One of the Four Diagnosis Method of Oriental Medicine, is necessarily project to improving Oriental medical clinic status and quality by standardization of diagnosis database. At that, accurate measurement equipment or devices(sensor, system and instruments, etc,) to exactly detect MacSang(脈診 : the parameter and subject of pulse diagnosis) have not developed yet. Existing Pulse diagnosis devices are not satisfy clinical needs and medical equipments quality. We study for pulse diagnosis system, that CD is satisfying oriental medical clinic needs, is ensuring accuracy and reappearance to support in clinical diagnosis and treatment, is guaranteeing the quality of medical equipments. theoretical base and convenience.

Pulse diagnosis, the most popular diagnostic tool in traditional Korean medicine, had had many forms but had been fixed on using wrist pulse and placing internal organs on Cun, Guan and Chi(寸 關 尺). Wang Shuhe(王叔和) suggested placing six viscera(六腑) on Cun, Guan and Chi based on relationship between external and internal meridian vessel, and Zhang Jiebin(張介賓) criticized his suggestion and insisted that pulse diagnosis should be based on the organ system. But the origin of pulse diagnosis which can be found in "(Huangdi's) Internal Classic(黃帝內經)" is a tool mainly for diagnosis of not internal organ system but meridian system. Most of material about pulse diagnosis after Ming dynasty(明代) reinterpreted pulse diagnosis in the aspect of organ system, So there has to be additional discussion about it.

Objectives In order to reinterpret the meaning of Inch-Bar-Cubit used by pulse diagnosis, this study investigates floating pulses of lung and heart in the Inch area, middle pulse of spleen and livers in the Bar area, and deep pulse of kidney and life gate in the Cubit area. However, some suggested that the meaning of Inch-Bar-Cubit should be interpreted in the same way as floating-middle-deep. Methods In this study, the contents of Inch-Bar-Cubit assignment of pulse diagnosis proposed by Dongeuibogam and Medical Scientist were investigated along with the existing investigation of pulse diagnosis, and their interpretation was investigated. Result and conclusion The assignment of books in Pulse diagnosis can be applied by replacing them with floating-middle-deep instead of Inch-Bar-Cubit.

The pulse diagnosis is the basic method of oriental medicine diagnosis. But in sasang constitutional medicine, it is said that it's not a major diagnotic method. But we don't have any sasang constitutional study of the pulse diagnosis. So I made this study by research of changing concept of the pulse diagnosis in chinese medical history and Dongyi Suse Bowon (longevity and life preservation in oriental medicine). The conclusion as follows. 1. There were many kinds of the pulse diagnosis in the ancient times, it has developed to simple and effective diagnotic method. Simple and effective is the major point of medical development, the 24 pulse is abridged to Floating Pulse(浮), Deep Pulse(沈), Slow Pulse(遲), Rapid Pulse(數) 2. The latter term of Chosun, the practical study was developed. In the view of the practical study, the pulse diagnosis has a lot of cricical point. Jung Yak-Yong, in his writing Mak Lon(脈論), criticize the pulse diagnosis. 3. In the sasang constitutional medicine, the constitutional diagnosis is very important. The methods of the constitutional diagnosis are three, the way of mind and greed, knowledge and deed, external figure and physical traits. But the pulse diagnosis is one of the way of external figure and physical traits, so we can't diagnose the exact constitution by the pulse diagnosis. 4. Dong-mu conclude that the pulse diagnosis is just the diagnostic way of symptom. But in the clinical situation, the ordinary symptoms are more important than the pulse diagnosis, because it is useful to know the condition of the ingestive food metabolism and the Qi-yack metabolism

Since many blood pressure pulse analyzer made to measurement of a pulse wave in quantitative way has been started, some sorts of pressure sensors are being developed. The result could differ and this cause either type of sensor or module shape, when pulse wave is measured. In this paper, calculate and compare the pressure sensor's stress distribution according to thickness of PDMS coating and existence of guide through Finite Element Method. As a result, the center of pressure sensor's stress increase as much as 24% as it is reduced as much as 0.3 mm that the PDMS coating thichness of pulse diagnostic sensor module, on the other hand the surrouding censor of center sensor's stress is reduced as much as 4.9%, and transmissive proportion of stress is small as little as 2.7%, When coating has guide.
