Abstract

In this study, pulse wave parameters changes were verified between normotensive and hypertensive group. To measure pulse wave in radial artery, non-invasive tonometric pulse wave measurement device (SphygmoCor PX, AtCor, Austrailia) was used. 136 subjects participated in this study. Among 20 parameters, 16 parameters changes were analysed(p < 0.05) between normotensive(n=104) and hypertensive group(n=32). As a results, several parameters related with pulse pressure, reflective pulse wave, systolic and diastolic function of heart showed significant difference between normotensive and hypertensive group.
