Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention discloses a test system and method for multi-segment aorta stiffness based on photoplethysmography signals, and relates to the field of cardiovascular medicine. Background technique
[0002] The aging of the population makes cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases one of the main health hazards of the population, and arterial and vascular structural and functional lesions typically characterized by atherosclerosis are the common pathological basis of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction and stroke . Atherosclerosis has the characteristics of invisibility and long-term progression of the disease process. Therefore, early detection of arterial function and structural lesions, and active and targeted interventions can delay the process of atherosclerosis, effectively Reduce the morbidity, disability and mortality of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
[0003] In each cardiac cycle, the pul...
