“…Pulse waves were obtained using a PTD (KIOM-PAS ver.2.0, Korean Institute of Oriental Medicine, Republic of Korea). The electromechanical stability of the device was certified based on the IEC 60601-1 2 nd edition, and the reliability and safety of the device were confirmed based on clinical good manufacturing practice in Korea 33 . The PTD consists of a main body with an arm holder and a sensing body attached to a mobile actuator.…”

The aim of this study was to compare radial pulse characteristics between primary dysmenorrhea (PD) patients and healthy subjects throughout the menstrual cycle. A total of 48 females aged 20 to 29 years participated, and all subjects were assigned to two groups according to their visual analogue scale scores. The radial pulse of each subject was obtained using a pulse tonometric device during menstrual, follicular, and luteal phases. In addition, various pulse analysis indices were used to estimate the pulse characteristics. The pulse tension index (PTI) and pulse depth index (PDI) in the patient group were significantly lower than those in the healthy group during the menstrual phase (P < 0.01 and <0.001, respectively). According to univariate logistic regression results, the PTI, PDI and optimal applied pressure (OAP) were significantly correlated with PD, and the model based on the PTI and OAP performed best (AUC = 0.828). This study is the first to analyze pulse tension inferred from the PTI and to apply this parameter to clinical practice. The results of this study confirmed the possibility of quantitatively measuring pulse tension and suggest that the PTI and OAP can serve as potential clinical indicators for pain disorders.

“…Pulse depth is one of the most important pulse characteristics. Pulse depth was measured based on the displacement of the sensor in the direction normal to the skin surface, and the pulse depth index (PDI) was calculated 33 . In addition, strength properties can also affect pulses.…”

The aim of this study was to develop a robust algorithm to quantify pulse sharpness that can complement the limitations of radial augmentation index (rAIx) and explore the role of this quantitative sharpness index in reflecting vascular aging or arterial stiffness. The pulse sharpness index (PSI) was developed by combining the end point angle and virtual height, and 528 radial pulses were analyzed. The PSI could be uniformly applied to various waveform morphologies, even those with no or vague tidal waves, unlike the rAIx. Significant sex differences were identified in the rAIx and PSI (P < 0.01 for both), and significant age-dependent decreases in the PSI were observed (P < 0.01). In addition, the PSI and age were correlated (r = − 0.550) at least as strong as the rAIx and age (r = 0.532), and the PSI had a significant negative correlation with arterial stiffness (r = − 0.700). Furthermore, the multiple linear regression model for arterial stiffness using the PSI, age, sex and heart rate showed the excellent performance (cross-validated R2 = 0.701), and the PSI was found to have the greatest influence on arterial stiffness. This study confirmed that the PSI could be a quantitative index of vascular aging and has potential for use in inferring arterial stiffness with an advantage over the rAIx.
