1. A method for detecting vascular sclerosis comprising the steps of:
disposing a cuff on a human hand, inflating the cuff by an air pump, deflating the cuff linearly by the air pump, sensing a pressure of the cuff by a pressure sensor, in accordance with oscillating with pulse beats of a human during deflating, and generating a pressure sensing signal by the pressure sensor, processing the pressure sensing signal to generate a processed signal by a processing circuit, converting the processed signal by a first conversion circuit, and processing the converted processed signal by an arithmetic circuit, calculating a systolic pressure and a diastolic pressure of the human by the arithmetic circuit, to get a vasodilation constant in accordance with the converted and processed signal, and checking vascular sclerosis according to the vasodilation constant by the arithmetic circuit, wherein the systolic pressure and the diastolic pressure are calculated according to an average blood pressure, the average blood pressure calculated is determined by a pressure value of a point on an oscillating waveform of the converted signal that reaches a maximum amplitude, the systolic pressure is defined as a pressure of a point on the waveform reaching 50% maximum amplitude appeared before the waveform arrives the maximum amplitude while the diastolic pressure is defined by a point having 75% maximum amplitude on the waveform after the waveform arrives the maximum amplitude; wherein the vasodilation constant represents an attenuation constant of the waveform signal obtained during deflation of the cuff, and the vasodilation constant is proportional to a pulse wave velocity and is based on the following equation:
P=p0e−({acute over (α)}t), wherein P is a pressure corresponding to descending waveform of the waveform signal; p0 is an initial pressure corresponding to a starting of the descending waveform; e is a constant; {acute over (α)} is the attenuation constant which is equal to the vasodilation constant; t is descending time of a waveform of the waveform signals. |
