Abstract :
This paper proposed a novel method evaluating vascular resistance (VR). Its aim was for convenience and accuracy of non-invasive detection of VR. New index was defined through Fourier analysis for pulse waveform being representative of differently physiological and pathological status. The trial result showed a good correlation between this index and K value and this paper provided a new and doable suggestion for the clinically non-invasive detection of VR.
