A pulse monitoring plethysmograph system for establishing a history of the pulses of the user over an extended period of time, comprises a housing, a piezoelectric sensing element mounted within said housing, and fixed to the housing, a force transmitting member positioned to cause said piezoelectric sensing element to flex in response to an external force and to generate a current, and a transimpedance amplifier. The transimpedance amplifier converts the current generated by the flexing of the piezoelectric element into a voltage signal and an analog to digital converter converts the voltage signal into digital data. A digital memory storing member is provided for storing the digital data and establishing a history of data over an extended period of time.
