[Previous technology] 5 The mystery of the human body is ever-changing, which contains a variety of different physiological information. Even if the same person is in different states and times, its physiological condition may continue to change. The circulatory system is of fundamental and importance to human health and assessment. influences. The human circulatory system is centered on the heart, and transports blood to various organs and blood vessels throughout the body through systolic and diastolic movements. According to 10 recent medical papers, there is a clear and specific relationship between the pulse waves of the fingertips of the human body and the health of the heart and thus its health. The first figure shows the relative relationship between an electrocardiogram and a standard fingertip pulse wave. The upper left of the figure is a standard electrocardiogram (ECG) waveform, and there is a time difference (Q to the firing point) between the waveform and the large pulse waveform below. Usually, the period from Q 15 to the end of T wave is the systole, and the start of τ wave to the next U is diastole. Corresponding to this heart motion waveform, the relationship between heart beat and fingertip pulse wave can be obtained. The ejection point in the figure represents the beginning of contraction of the ventricle, and is also the starting point of blood flow into the artery. As the pressure in the blood vessel increases, the amplitude gradually rises to the main peak. 20 The main wave is the maximum amplitude of the pulse wave chart. The rising section of this wave represents the rapid ejection of the ventricle. The rising speed is affected by blood flow resistance and vascular compliance, and is the first output wave. The waveform goes down and forms a tidal wave, which reflects the phenomenon that the left ventricle in the body stops ejecting, arterial dilatation and pressure drop, etc., and is the second output wave. Then, between the descending branch of the tide wave and the ascending branch of the heavy wave, there is a 1228981 notch wave with a downward waveform. Finally, it is a prominent wave in the descending branch. Generally, it is a waveform caused by the aortic valve closing in the early diastole of the heart, and the blood return hits it, causing the blood to rebound. It is called the heavy stroke wave for the third output wave. Therefore, accurate measurement and analysis of the subject's fingertip pulse waves will help judge their heart function and overall health status. [Summary of the invention] 10. Therefore, the first object of the present invention is to provide a finger pulse wave measurement and analysis system that is light and convenient and can be used as a daily health care device for individuals at home. A second object of the present invention is to provide a finger pulse wave measurement and analysis system with accurate measurement. Another object of the present invention is to provide a finger pulse wave measurement and analysis system based on a health index as a quantitative basis for a healthy state. Therefore, 'the finger pulse wave measurement and analysis system of the present invention is used to analyze the pulse wave signal from a finger of one subject for analysis. The system includes: a signal measurement unit for measuring the finger A pulse wave signal to be measured within a certain time; a signal pre-processing unit that processes the pulse wave signal 20 obtained by the measurement unit; and an operation analysis unit that processes the pulse wave signal processed by the pre-processing unit. The spectrum conversion is normalized according to a predetermined reference, and then a predefined health index is calculated based on the normalized spectrum. [Embodiment] The foregoing and other technical contents, features, and advantages of the present invention will be clearly understood in the detailed description of a preferred embodiment in conjunction with the McCaw pattern under 1228981. 0 First, as shown in the second and third figures The preferred embodiment of the finger pulse wave measurement and analysis system of the present invention mainly includes a signal measurement of a pulse wave signal at a specific place to be measured in a finger 1 of a subject (shown in Figures 5 and 6). Unit 2, a signal pre-processing unit 3 that pre-processes the pulse wave signal, and an operation analysis unit 4 that converts the pulse wave signal processed by the pre-processing unit 3, the main implementation steps are as in the fourth step. As shown. However, it is necessary to point out in advance that in this embodiment, the finger to be measured 丨 refers to the fingertip 11 of the hand, and in a variation example, the finger toe 1 may also be the finger or toe ( The fingertips or other parts such as the knuckles, or further applied to the trunk of other limbs of the human body such as the wrist, all belong to the essential scope of the present invention. '15 As shown in the first, fifth, and sixth figures, in this embodiment, the signal measurement unit 2 and the signal pre-processing unit 3 are set together, and the overall outline is-a rectangular box Λ blind measurement unit 2 is used to transmit and A pulse signal is measured by receiving a light signal at the fingertip U of the finger to be measured, and mainly has a main body 21, a transmitting portion 22, a receiving portion 23, and a repeating component 24. The body 2 ^ has a circular tube-shaped ring wall niche inside to surround and define a ring-shaped channel 212 for the front end of the finger 1 to pass through. The inner edge of the ring wall 211 forms a black diaphragm 213 'to block the interference of external light sources. The transmitting section 22 and the receiving section 23 are respectively disposed on two opposite sides of the ring wall 211 in the radial direction, and respectively transmit and receive an optical signal along the direction of the channel 212. In this embodiment, the optical signal is infrared light with a wavelength of 950 nm as an example. However, other suitable light sources in the form of visible light or non-20 1228981 visible light sources are also applicable. The pressed part 24 has two opposite ends 24 respectively penetrating horizontally and radially opposite sides of the ring wall 211 so that the pressed part 24 is approximately horizontally passed along the channel 212 for pressing on the fingertip i to be measured. Near the upper edge, in the present embodiment, the pressing part 24 uses a screw = 5 but is not limited to this element. As shown in the second to sixth figures, when the subject's finger 丨 extends into the annular channel 212 inside the ring wall 2ΐ, and touches the pressed part 24 with the top of the fingertip U (that is, the upper edge of the nail), the pressed part 24 is It suppresses and obtains a stabilization and positioning effect. At the same time, when the infrared rays emitted by the transmitting section 22 pass through the fingertip u corresponding to the 10-degree cross section, the difference in relative transmittance caused by the change in blood volume due to the change in blood volume caused by the heart beat causes the infrared rays received by the receiving section 23 to change. / This principle can be used to record the fingertip U pulse wave plethysmograph to measure the pulse wave signal at the fingertip u (step 51 in the fourth picture) 〇15 As shown in the second to fourth pictures, before the signal The processing unit 3 mainly includes a first-order filter 31, an amplifier 32, a second-order filter 33, a controller 34, an analog / digital (A / D) converter 35, a memory device, a display 37, and A correction module 38. Because the signal measurement unit 2 obtains the pulse wave signal by non-invasive body surface measurement, it is easy to make the human physiological signal indistinguishable from the 20 external interference signal, especially the interference signal existing in the daily environment is the most serious. The 60Hz interference signal is implied in the power supply, and the frequency of human physiological signals is mostly between 0 and 60Hz. Therefore, 'in order to obtain real human physiological signals, the signal pre-processing unit 3 comes from the signal', then the unit 2 receiving section 2 3 inputs the pulse wave signal 'will be filtered by a first-order low-pass 10 1228981 filter 31 Signal (step 521), and then the original weak pulse signal is amplified by an appropriate multiple by the amplifier 32 (step record 2), and then the noise generated by the signal amplification is completely filtered by the first-order filter 33 (step 523). In this embodiment, the controller 34 uses a microprocessor chip module as an example, such as the MSP43〇 mixed signal micro processor or other suitable products produced by Texas Instruments, as the signal pre-processing unit 3 Control center, and the analog / digital converter 35 is built in the controller 34. However, in other variations, the controller 34 and the analog / digital converter 35 may be separately provided. The analog / digital converter 35 converts the analog pulse wave signal input from the second-order torch 33 into a digital signal (step 524), and then stores the digital signal data in the memory 36 (step 525), and the graphics of the controller The digital signal data is converted into a red pulse waveform to be displayed on the liquid crystal display 37 (step 526). In this embodiment, the memory 36 is a flash memory (flash memory) as an example. However, it can also be other rewritable solid-state memory, optical storage media (such as optical discs), magnetic storage media (such as magnetic discs, magnetic tapes), or any other suitable digital storage device. 32 The distortion of the amplification level due to a long history or other unknown 20, the correction mode of the signal pre-processing unit 3 and 3, for the subject to correct the amplification level of the amplifier 32. The correction mode name may include an oscillator circuit 381 , A signal selection circuit 3 and a buckle correction circuit 383, and the oscillator circuit 381 is used to generate a sine wave correction signal with a fixed load and a fixed frequency (step 53). In the state of 8981, the input signal of the first-order low-pass filter 31 is from the fingertip η pulse wave signal measured by the receiving unit 23 of the signal measurement unit 2. However, when the subject wants to perform the amplifier 32 level correction operation , The signal selection circuit 5 382 can be actuated via a signal switching button 384 outside the signal pre-processing unit 3 (step 532), so that the signal of the input first-order low-pass filter 31 is switched from the fingertip 11 pulse signal to the oscillator The sine wave correction signal generated by the circuit 381 is used to monitor whether the magnification level is out of adjustment through the liquid crystal display 37. Then the subject can use another correction adjustment button 385 outside the signal pre-processing unit 3 according to the monitoring results (steps 533 to 537). The signal level correction circuit 383 is activated and controlled to correct the magnification of the amplifier 32 to improve accuracy (step 538). The seventh A to seventh E and the eighth A to eight C diagrams respectively illustrate the signal through After the measurement unit ζ measurement and the signal pre-processing unit 3 have processed the pulse wave pattern displayed on the display 37, the subject data and clinical significance analysis will be detailed below with the results of the operation analysis unit 4 together. In the embodiment, the operation analysis unit 4 is based on a personal computer, and a storage device 41 in the electronic device 41 stores program software 42 executable by the computer. The storage device 41 may be, for example, a hard disk, an optical disk, a magnetic disk, Magnetic tape, memory card, flash memory, or other appropriate form of digital data storage medium 20, and in this embodiment, the program software 42 is combined with palpitations

In cooperation with the execution of the program software 42, the computer 4 of this unit will be connected to the controller 34 of the signal 12 1228981 pre-processing unit 3 to retrieve the stored pulse wave digital signal data from the storage 36, and then the pulse wave signal Fast Fourier transform processing (FFT) is performed to transform the data from the original time domain (t ime domain) to the frequency domain (frequency domain). As shown in the fourth figure, in this embodiment, the pulse signal data X [n] is subjected to a fast Fourier transform of 1024 points to obtain frequency-domain sequence data X [k], n = 0, 1, 2, ... ..., 1999 (step 541).

The health index, spectrum graph, and heartbeat data obtained above will be automatically stored in a database 411 or other storage location in the storage setting 41 of the computer 4 (step 561), and displayed on the personal computer 41 after processing- The 43 screen (step 13 1228981 step 562) is for the reference of the subject or physician. Continue to review the fingertip pulse wave diagrams shown in the aforementioned 7A to 7E diagrams. Figures 7A and 7B show the measurement results of a 20-year-old and a 38-year-old healthy man, respectively. Among them, the 7A head is similar to the general standard fingertip pulse wave shape shown in the first chart5, and the healthy man in Figure 7B Due to the older age, the elasticity of the blood vessels is poor, so the tidal wave of the pulse wave is less uplifted. Figure 7c shows a middle-aged man with high blood pressure, Figure 7D shows an old man with high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, and kidney disease, and Figure 7 shows a high blood pressure, high blood pressure, and kidney disease. Blood lipids and heart disease in the elderly. From the comparison of the seventh A to Seven E pictures, it can be found that the pulse wave maps with 10 blood diseases of the heart and blood have a broad main wave peak, and there are no obvious signs of tide waves and heavy waves. The standard fingertip pulse wave pattern is significantly different. The masters from the eighth to eighth are the fingertip pulse waveforms obtained by the same person at different times. Figures A and B are measured at 15 when the subject feels unwell. The waveforms have sharply changed burrs, which are not smooth curves like healthy graphics. It is specifically explained here that the burr phenomenon is not General noise, but in other actual measurement results, patients with cardiovascular diseases have the same situation. Figure 8C is measured when the subject's physical condition feels normal, although there are still a few burrs, but compared to Figures 8A and 8B, the curve is smoother. The eighth A through eight C diagrams are fast Fourier transformed and normalized by the operation analysis unit 4, and their waveforms are shown in the ninth A through Nine C diagrams, respectively, and their health indices are calculated as 13, 8, and 3, respectively. Therefore, from the above waveforms and their corresponding health indexes, we can obtain a preliminary conclusion. The 14 1228981 waveform with more drastic changes in the burr will have a relatively higher health index, while the smoother and healthier waveform, the health = number will show a smaller value. That is, the health index can indeed be used as an objective and quantified reference index for personal health complaints. 5 10 15 20 — Of course, it should be noted that many other changes can be made to the above-mentioned standardization standard of the spectrum graph and the health index, and are not limited to the calculation formulas or values shown in this embodiment. Furthermore, the relationship between the health index and the individual's physical, psychological, or physical health status and the type of disease, and the reference index value, need to be further-a large number of samples from time to time, gender, reading and receiving samples, and medical = clinical diagnosis results Make statistics. It must also be described, although in this embodiment, the signal measurement unit 2 and the signal pre-processing unit 3 are jointly set, and the operation and analysis unit 4 is-a separate personal computer is taken as an example, then each unit 2 i The configuration of 4 can also be changed in many ways, such as placing signal measurement unit 2 and signal pre-processing unit 3 points and 1 or all units 2 to 4 on a single device. and then. In other words, the signal transmission method of each unit 2 to 4 can also be carried out by wired or wireless means, or through network systems such as area (LAN), wide area (· N) = Internet. For example, the signal measurement unit 2 and the signal pre-processing unit 3 can be set at the end of the portable or portable type, and as the subject's-home daily health equipment, calculation analysis as early as 7L 4 is located in the hospital, And the connection with the signal pre-processing unit 3 through the Internet 'enables the physician to use the health index, frequency and darkness graphs, heart rate, and heart rate data obtained by the operation analysis unit 4, and cooperate with the caller on the phone or directly through: The main complaint of Tan 'gives health care or medical advice to each subject, which also saves time for the test takers to visit the hospital in person. 15 1228981 In summary, the present invention provides a finger pulse wave measurement and analysis system with simple structure, low cost, and easy operation, which can be popularized to families in today's sphygmomanometers, becoming a personal or family standing or Always carry health care equipment. Through the establishment and calculation of the health index, in addition to providing a quantitative objective indicator of the health status of 5 people, it can be used for the subject's health care consultation or physician's reference, and can be applied to the evaluation of the subject's effectiveness after physical training. And many other uses. In terms of actual measurement results, the pressed part 24 i of the signal measurement unit 2 provides a stable and positioning effect. Compared with other measurement methods ^ more southern accuracy ', this case is a new and significant improvement in efficiency Lai Fa 10 Ming. However, the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. When the scope of implementation of the present invention cannot be limited by this, that is, the simple equivalent changes and modifications made according to the scope of the patent application and the content of the invention specification of the present invention , All should still fall within the scope of the invention patent. 15 [Brief description of the diagram] The first diagram is the relative relationship between an electrocardiogram and standard fingertip pulse wave waveforms.
