Abstract

PURPOSE:To perform efficient and reliable diagnosis of a circulating function by a pulse wave meter by a method wherein the period of a pulse wave is detected, and during detection of abnormality of the period, display of a picture is automatically stopped. CONSTITUTION:When a finger tip is touched to a sensor part 1, the delicate volume change of the finger tip is converted into a signal and further, the change is differentiated two times to provide an acceleration pulse wave signal (a), and a pulse wave is displayed on a display part 3 by means of a picture. Simultaneously, the signal (a) is converted into a pulse signal (b) by a one shot circuit 41. An inversion signal (d) and a reference pulse signal (c) of the signal (b) are inputted to an AND circuit 44 through an NOT circuit 43, and the reference signal c' forming a group responding to a period of an acceleration pulse wave is orderly outputted. The signal c' is orderly counted by a counter 45, and is sent to a latch 46 and a subtractor 47. Since the latch 46 sends a count number of one time before to the subtractor 47, when a difference therebetween exceeds a preset given range, the subtractor 47 outputs a static signal to a display part 3 to stop display of a picture.

The count number is sent to the latch 46 and the subtracter 47, and the latch 4G sends the previous count number to the subtracter 47, so
The subtracter 47 extracts the current count number (a
Since the latch 46 inputs the current count number (count number of s) and the previous count number (count number of C+) at this time, the difference between the two, that is, the periodic fluctuation of the pulse wave ('r1T21), and the value corresponding to When the difference exceeds a predetermined range, for example 0.2 or more, and a stationary signal is issued, the image display stops.Therefore, the period of the pulse wave is sequentially measured, and the regular period is For normal pulses, the diagnostician can stop the pulse wave at will and make a diagnosis by observing the pulse wave. When a disturbance in the period, that is, an arrhythmia occurs, a stationary signal is issued from the subtractor 47, and the image display becomes static and the pulse wave at the time of the arrhythmia is displayed as a still image, making it possible to reliably observe the pulse wave at the time of the arrhythmia. In addition, the present invention only needs to constantly measure the pulse cycle in a pulse wave meter and freeze the image display when an abnormal cycle occurs. , a volume pulse wave may be displayed, and the period measuring means and the abnormality recognition means are not particularly specified in the above embodiments.
