Description of the Invention (Technical Field) The present invention relates to an arteriosclerosis measurement device, and more particularly, to an arteriosclerosis measurement device which can non-invasively and routinely measure blood viscosity or vasodilation reaction. [Problems to be Solved by the Conventional Technology and Invention] Generally, there are healthy blood and unhealthy blood. Among them, unhealthy blood has a high viscosity and is called "thick" blood. In contrast, healthy blood has a low blood viscosity and is called "smooth" blood. One of the reasons for the thick blood is that blood plasma contains a large amount of cholesterol or lipids', which is called "blood filling" because of the increase in blood viscosity. Another reason is that it is difficult for blood cells to pass through the microvessels due to agglutination of red blood cells or platelets. Also, usually, the size of red blood cells or white blood cells is only slightly larger than the caliber of microvessels. They are usually self-deformed to pass through the microvessels. However, when the blood sugar level or fat in the blood increases, the self-deformation ability is reduced and the result becomes difficult to pass. Micro blood vessels increase blood viscosity. This situation usually shows a "hard blood" phenomenon. Agglutination of red blood cells also occurs when there is insufficient water intake, making the blood thicker. In addition, stress or excessive smoking or aging are also thought to make red blood cells more likely to agglutinate. Because blood viscosity is the cause of thrombosis or arteriosclerosis, hypertension, diabetes, myocardial infarction, and cerebral infarction, it is one of the important causes of lifestyle disorders. In addition, there are many blood in daily life _____A_____ This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) · I ------------- ----------------- Order --------- line " ^^ 1 (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) 529931 A7 _____B7______ 5 2. Description of the invention (y) Vegetables or fruits that become smooth, fish and shellfish containing a large amount of DHA, EPA, etc. are introduced and studied. Furthermore, if the "blood viscosity changes right", the frictional stress corresponding to blood viscosity in endothelial cells of blood vessels will increase. Once this occurs, nitric oxide (NO), which is one of the physiologically active substances corresponding to the frictional stress, is released to the blood vessels. Nitric oxide relaxes vascular smooth muscle, thereby dilating the blood vessels. As the blood vessels dilate, the blood becomes easier to pass through the blood vessels, so the pressure of the thick blood on the blood vessels can be eased. In addition, since the aforementioned nitric oxide has the effect of inhibiting the blood platelets or blood cells from healing to the endothelial cells of blood vessels, it is known that the endothelial cells of blood vessels can be kept in a smooth state. Therefore, when the nitric oxide cannot be released and the platelets and other endothelial cells heal in blood vessels, the inner diameter of the blood vessels will become thinner, and because the blood vessels cannot expand, it will be difficult for viscous blood to pass through the blood vessels, and blood clots will easily occur. This is also an artery Causes of hardening. Therefore, it can be understood that the dilation response is large, that is, the softness of blood vessels is healthy. As such, the dilation response of blood vessels, as well as the aforementioned blood viscosity, is also one of the important cause parameters of lifestyle diseases. Also, arteriosclerosis measuring devices for measuring blood viscosity or vasodilation response have been previously known.

Description of the invention (price;) Judgment (Hess's Law) and other inspections, in Healthy people are about 5.68 to 4.41 in the morning and 3.99 in the evening. However, in general, the viscosity of blood must be measured at least between two points if the law of Bolsei is used, otherwise it cannot be calculated. Therefore, the blood pressure difference and blood flow velocity were previously measured separately as non-invasive arteriosclerosis measurement devices which were too large. However, in recent years, non-invasive blood viscosity measurement methods have not been proposed based on the measurement of blood pressure differences. That is, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-316180, it is known that echoes using an ultrasonic device are used to obtain a number of blood flow velocities that are assumed to be Newtonian. Differential equation method to obtain blood viscosity and pressure gradient at the same time. However, the measurement site to which the method described in this publication is applicable is limited to large and middle arteries with blood flow velocity distribution in blood vessels, and it is not easy to use it at home if the measurement site or measurement technique is considered. On the other hand, although taking one drop of blood cannot be said to be non-invasive, live blood analysis using a CCD camera and a microscope to observe living blood cells has become popular. The state of the blood cells is illuminated in the blood that is put about 10,000 times with a CCD camera and a microscope, and the state of agglutination of red blood cells and the state of white blood cells can be confirmed in a living body. This blood cell analysis is excellent in that the viscous state of blood can be confirmed by a picture. However, because there are various types of blood, it is difficult for an expert to judge the state of the blood, and it is not convenient to use at home. In particular, blood must be collected first and then observed under a microscope, so it can be said that it is set to research-_______________ ___________ fi _____ __---This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm)- ---------- 0 ^ -------- Order --------- Line # (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) 529931 A7 _____ B7 _ 5. Description of the invention (+) The device used in the room is standard. In addition, recently, using semiconductor microfabrication technology, the Micro Channel Array Flow Analyzer (MC: FAN method) has been developed to manufacture artificial microvessels on a glass substrate and pass the collected blood through the microvessels. Refer to the "Cell Microfluidic Variable Measuring Device MC-FAN" by Kikuchi Yuji et al. 30 (7), 281-284 (1998). This method is limited to use in experimental institutions because of the large scale of blood collection and device processing. However, if the blood viscosity is considered to be expressed by the time flowing through the artificial microvessels, it is considered to be very close in principle to the non-invasive device for measuring blood viscosity using the microvascular blood flow in vivo in the present invention described later. Generally, the microvessels that divide from the arterioles to the arterioles are connected to the surface of the skin at right angles after the skin surface where the microvessels such as fingertips are concentrated enters, and are connected to the microvenous vessels.

Therefore, if the deformability of red blood cells or the like is reduced, or red blood cell agglutination occurs, the blood cell velocity of a single microvascular level is estimated to decrease the maximum velocity amplitude due to an increase in blood viscosity.

In this way, it is judged that there is an individual difference in the maximum blood cell velocity, and the error is so large that the difference between the cardiac cycle is so small that no difference can be seen. After compressing the upper carotid artery with the cuff to the highest blood pressure for 1 minute, the air pressure of the cuff is released, and the blood is congested to all the microvessels, so as to restore the blood flow velocity connecting the micromotor vessels to the front of the microstatic vessels There is a significant difference between the diabetic population and the healthy normal population. The reason for the significant difference is presumed to be that the blood viscosity of the diabetic patients is high, so the microvascular blood cells at the end It takes time to reply.

The device first measures a predetermined diameter of a blood vessel in a normal state by using an echophone. Then, the upper carotid artery is blocked with a cuff for 5 minutes, and then the cuff is released. The blood pressure was used to make the blood congested, and the predetermined blood vessel diameter was measured using the echo. The blood vessel dilation response was measured by comparing the blood vessel diameter between normal time and blood congestion after the end of hemostasis.

The arterial sclerosis measuring device of the present invention in item 12 of the scope of the patent application is characterized in that it has: a cuff, which compresses the arterial site supplying blood to the blood vessels by air pressure, and occludes it; an air pressure control mechanism, It is used to control the air pressure of the loop; the blood level detection mechanism is to measure the photoelectric pulse wave in the micro blood vessels blocked by the loop with a photoelectric pulse wave meter, and the frequency band of direct current in the photoelectric pulse wave Pulse wave to detect the blood level of the blood in the microvessel; the central processing device is to use the air pressure control mechanism to compress and release the arterial part that supplies blood to the microvessel, and use the blood level detection mechanism to measure the normal and The photoelectric pulses of the microvessels during congestion after hemostasis are detected by the photoelectric pulses. The difference in blood levels between normal time and congestion after hemostasis is calculated from the difference in blood levels, and then the blood volume is calculated. The amount of increase in blood volume is used to calculate the increase in blood flow, and the increase in blood flow is used to determine the vasodilation response. Here, the blood level refers to the ratio of oxidized and reduced heme which absorbs near-infrared rays flowing through the microvessels of the fingertips in terms of absorbance. In addition, since the blood volume of the present invention is the blood volume per unit time, as long as the hemoglobin, that is, red blood cells, increases, the blood volume is considered to increase, and it can be said that the blood level is related to the blood volume. In addition, since the blood flow is the blood flow per unit time, the blood volume is proportional to the blood flow. As the blood volume increases, the blood flow also increases. Therefore, it is thought that the increase in blood flow can be calculated from the increase in blood level. Moreover, the echo of the conventional vasodilation response measurement method is used to determine the dilated blood.

Description of the invention (f) It is determined that if the blood flow increases, the blood vessels will expand a lot, so the blood vessel expansion can be measured by measuring the blood level. In order to measure the blood volume correctly, it is not possible to measure the AC portion only with the photoelectric pulse wave volume. It is necessary to measure the DC portion correctly. Moreover, with such a configuration, the blood level detection means can detect not only the waveform of the photoelectric pulse wave, but also the difference in absorbance between normal time and congestion. Therefore, the difference in blood level can be measured from the difference in absorbance, and the blood level can be determined from the difference in absorbance. The difference is calculated as the final increase in blood flow to determine the vasodilator response. The thirteenth arteriosclerosis measuring device of the present invention in item 13 of the scope of the patent application is further characterized by a timer, which is used to set the time for the air pressure to be applied to the loop by the air pressure control mechanism to make the The arterial site where the microvascular supply blood is occluded by the cuff for a certain period of time.

On the other hand, the response time Treco (s) of healthy people with the same number of patients as the aforementioned patients is also statistically processed and stored in the memory 4. In particular, because the statistical distribution of healthy people sometimes has a high dependence on increasing age, in the statistical distribution, it is easier to judge the blood viscosity state by memorizing the two groups in memory 4 respectively. The above-mentioned CPU 3 is connected with a photoelectric pulse wave measuring meter 5 as an example of a blood flow state detecting mechanism to detect a blood flow state in a micro blood vessel which is oppressed by the aforementioned sleeve 1. The photoelectric pulse wave measuring meter 5 can optically measure the state of blood flow pulse waves in the microvessels which are oppressed by the aforementioned sleeve 1. Furthermore, as another example of the mechanism for detecting the aforementioned blood flow state, a laser Doppler flow meter or a laser Doppler flow velocity meter may be used. Here, since there is a relationship of blood flow = blood volume x blood flow velocity, the blood velocity using the laser Doppler flow meter or the laser Doppler flow velocity meter is the same index 値. In addition, the CPU 3 is connected with a recovery time measurement timer 6 to measure the time required for the blood flow pulses in the microvessels that have been oppressed to be released by the loop 1 to return to the normal state. —-1 ^ —— This paper size is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) -------- Order --- ------ Line- A7 529931 ___B7___ One or five.

The inside of the aforementioned cuff 1 is wound around a part of the human body that can pass through arteries that supply blood to microvessels. Examples of the winding positions of the ferrule 1 are shown in Figs. 2 to 4 respectively. Fig. 2 shows that the loop 1 is wound around the bottom of the third or fourth finger base of the left hand, and measured with the blood viscosity measuring device of Fig. 1 using a capsule-type photoelectric pulse wave meter 5 at the front end.

In addition, this description is to describe the embodiment in which the collar 1 is wound around the bottom of the third or fourth finger base of the left hand as shown in Fig. 2. ____________ L4 —---- This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) --- I--I--II · I ---- II '— III — — — — ( (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) 529931 A7 ________B7 __ V. Description of the Invention (γ) Figure 5 shows the pulse wave amplitude state measured by the photoelectric pulse wave meter before and after the loop 1 is used. Fig. 6 shows the effects of the embodiment in the order of steps. Figures 1 and 2 show the maximum amplitudes of n normal pulses in front of the base of the hand bone in the fifth finger base of the left hand in the fifth finger, or averaged only in Trest seconds, as shown in Figure 5, to obtain the pulse The average of the maximum amplitude of the wave 値 VmaxAV (Figure 6-ST1). At this time, although the appropriate air pressure acting on the sleeve 1 need only be set to tens of mmHg higher than the subject's maximum blood pressure 但, but sometimes It is not unreasonable how much the air pressure acting on the collar 1 is appropriate. In this case, you can use the method to increase the air pressure of the loop 1 so that the maximum amplitude of the pulse wave becomes a certain decrease Vmin as the optimal loop pressure (Figure 6-ST2). After that, the air pressure control mechanism 2 controlled by the CPU 3 applies air pressure to the cuff 1 and occludes the arterial microvessels for a certain period of time, as shown in Fig. 5 (Fig. 6-ST3). The time Toe can be set to about 60 seconds, for example. After the microvessels are occluded with the cuff 1 for the Toe time, the air pressure acting on the cuffs 1 is quickly released, so that the occluded arterial blood flows into the microvessels with a reticular distribution again. During the recovery of this pulse wave, if the viscosity of blood increases, the deformability of red blood cells will decrease, and it will be time-consuming when blood cells do not easily pass through the microvessels. Figure 5 is to determine the recovery time Treco. When the air pressure of the loop 1 is released, the CPU 3 will take a moving average of the maximum amplitudes of n pulse waves, or match the time constant to the pulses obtained within a certain time Tmov.

And the time measured by the response time timer 6 so far is saved as the recovery time Treco⑷. Also, the The response time Ti * eco (s) is directly displayed on the display 9 (Figure 6-ST6). The measured recovery time TreC0 (s) is compared with the recovery time Treco (s) stored in memory 4 as a statistical distribution in advance, and the printer 7 is used to print on the paper (Figure 6-ST7). FIG. 7 shows the average recovery time TreC (s) measured in most of the patients with diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, and hyperlipidemia memorized in the aforementioned memory, and among the healthy normal persons on the same scale as the number of patients The average of the measured recovery time TreC0 (S). In particular, in the statistical distribution of healthy people, the recovery time, TreC0 (S) has a high dependence on the increase in age, the older the person is. On the other hand, in the statistical distribution of patients, there is no dependence on the recovery time TreC0 (S) and increasing age, and the blood becomes "thick".

As described above, in the vasodilation response measuring device 21 of this embodiment, since the pulse wave of the DC band of the photoelectric pulse wave can be detected by the blood level detection device, it can detect not only the waveform of the photoelectric pulse wave, but also the normal time. The difference between the absorbance of light irradiated by oxidized and reduced heme during congestion. Thereby, the blood level can be measured, the final blood flow can be calculated from the blood level, and the blood vessel expansion reaction can be measured. As a result, the vasodilation response can be measured in a simple and non-invasive manner. In addition, since the vasodilation response is a soft healthy blood vessel, the vasodilation response can be used to measure the degree of arteriosclerosis.

The CPU measures arteriosclerosis according to this standard. In addition, the blood level detection device 30 may receive a pulse wave of a DC frequency band from a photoelectric pulse wave of a photoelectric pulse wave meter as a DC signal, but it is not limited thereto.
