Abstract

A digital computer program is described for automatic identification of the clinically important points in the externally recorded brachial pulse wave. The logic of recognition is designed to locate these points in any type of brachial pulse wave. Intrinsic to the program is the identification of possible errors of recognition at each step. In 332 brachial pulse wave records comparisons between statistics calculated from the computer identified points with corresponding measurements calculated from points identified by an experienced physician showed correlation coefficients varying between .94 and .99 indicating good agreement.
