PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow an examinee himself/herself to perform a simplified examination and to determine both tendencies of the cardiac disease and the vascular disease of the examinee.SOLUTION: In a simplified blood flow examination device 200, a pulse wave acquiring section 210 acquires information including waveform of a pulse wave from a fingertip pulse wave sensor 100 that measures the pulse wave flowing the blood vessel of an examinee, and a disease tendency identifying section 220 identifies both tendencies of the cardiac disease and the vascular disease of the examinee on the basis of a waveform shape of the pulse wave. The disease tendency identifying section 220, for example, determines the vascular disease from the waveform shape for one period, and also determines the cardiac disease from shapes of the whole pulse waves for prescribed periods (shapes including waveforms for a plurality of periods). |
