TP-KS (Pulse Wave to Korotkoff Sound Systolic Time / 70~190mmHg)The maximum time(1/1000 sec.) from the start of the pulse wave to the appearanceof Korotkoff sounds. Index of arteriosclerosis.

MEAN (Mean Pressure / 74~106mmHg)Mean value of blood pressure change in blood vessel.

PP (Pulse Pressure / 30~70mmHg)Difference between systolic BP and diastolic BP.

PRP (Pressure Rate Product / 6000~12000)The parameter is strongly related with myocardial oxygen consumption as the indexof a cardiac muscle load.

BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate)The parameter shows the metabolic rate of energy needed for the necessary minimummovements (heartbeat, breathing, body temperature, maintenance, etc.) for life support.BMR=0.75×(pulse rate + 0.74×pulse pressure) - 72

SV (Stroke Volume / 60~130)The parameter shows the volume sent by a heart per stroke.

CO (Cardiac Output / 4~8)The parameter shows the volume sent by a heart per minute.

CI (Cardiac Index / 2.5~4.0)The parameter shows cardiac output per body surface area(BSA).

BSA (Body Surface Area)BSA is calculated from the inputted height and weight.

KSG (Korotkoff Sound Graph)Different types of KSG pattern will be shown depending on the state of the heart andthe blood vessel. The cardiac output, the progress of the artery wall and the peripheralvascular resistance, etc. would be understood from judging these.

TPR (Total Peripheral Resistance / 950~1500)The parameter is the peripheral vessel resistance which is calculated by BP, SV, and CI.

ArteriosclerosisBecause of arteriosclerosis progresses with aging, it can be said a kind of symptom of senility. However, it is understood that arteriosclerosis is greatly influenced by differences of lifestyles such as meal, the movement, smokings, and stresses. Arteriosclerosis is factors of the diseases of hypertension, the hyperlipemia, the diabetic, and obesity, etc.

Peripheral CirculatoryDisturbanceThe change of blood state as well as the change of vascular state are the main reasons.

HypertensionHypertension has little subjective symptom. Arteriosclerosis might progress secretly when hypertension remains, and symptoms such as the brain hemorrhage, the cerebral infarction, the cardiac failure, the angina, cardiac infarction, and renal failure could be caused.

Cardiac FunctionCardiac Function is one of key factors to exactly judge the background of blood pressure.

Parama-Tech recommends to fo l low "Guidel ines for Treatment of High Blood Pressure"

that the pat ients in the hypertension should measure blood pressure in order to

avoid the inf luence of a physiological change according to the t ime di fference to compare

r ight and lef t of the brachium blood pressures by measurement of both arms at once.

●KSG and Normal artery ●KSG and artery with lowered cardiac output

●The classification of KSG

*Relationship between vascular movement and KSG. Normal artery repeats the pulse wave-mediated distension and contraction, and propels blood to the periphery.

PrintedpatternExample

*The explanation of the blood flow pattern of KSG shows the tendency in the state of the blood flow only. This is not a diagnosis.

*The case of an artery that does not distend in response to pulse wave. In this case, vascular movement is not involved in blood flow and KSG lacks the 3rd poimt of SW.

■When cardiac output (Qi) is extremely small, or when peripheral outflow is extremely large.■Asevere case of arteriosclerosis with the loss of vascular elasticity.■Autonomic imbalance aiso shows this pattern.

The length of the KSG l ine inf luences the s ize of Korotkoff sound, the s ize of the l ine inf luences the frequency

of a sound, and the volume is correlated with the cardiac output. When the 1st to the 3rd point peak of

Korotkoff sound is determined by contract i le force of the heart , e last ic i ty of the artery and the blood f low, and i f

there is any abnormal i ty in ei ther, i t has the trend for the start ing to become easy. Moreover, when the 3rd to

the 5th point is determined as blood-capi l lary vein (microcirculat ion) resistance, vein reservoir volume, a

coronary blood f low, etc. and i f there is any abnormal i ty in ei ther, i t has the trend for the distance to become

short . Usual ly, the 1st to the 3rd point : the 3rd to the 5th point is set to 3:2, and, as for the swan type(SW)

graph made into an ideal , the distance from the 3rd to the 5th point becomes shorter wi th aging.

Name ofdisease

Since PS-501 can immediately show blood pressure, arteriosclerosis, and heart condition, the reason(s) for

hypertension could be discovered concretely. This helps us much to decide the treatment. Calcium

antagonist was chosen easily as a conventional medicine in Japan normally, but if chronic administration is

continued without concretely investigating the causes, it would escalate the load of the heart and the risk of

the cardiac failure into higher also. I feel this is revolutionary device. PS-501 helps much for discovering the

factor(s) & cause(s) and choosing effective medical treat then, as a scheme of developing effective medicine

according to the cause of illness.

The medical examination by PS-501 (right-and-left arms synchronous measurement) is in non-invasive and

contributes the diagnosis with high accuracy in a short time. This would be the best device for screening at

the first medical checkup and I would like other doctors besides cardiologist to use this device.
