Summary

Pregnancy is a very complex and coordinated physiological process.The physiological changes are closely related to the physiological function of Zang-fu organs, which leads to the change of slippery pulse. By touching different levels of depth and the part of the radial artery, it is found that the formation mechanism of pulse information, especially unsmooth pulse, is similar to the principle of sonar emission and reception: the heart is equivalent to the transmitting device of sonar wave. Each contraction of the heart produces a cluster of powerful sound waves, which are rapidly transmitted to the whole body along the arterial wall and the blood in it as a medium. More than 90% of the arterial blood flow of normal organs and tissues is a steady laminar flow, which does not produce turbulence, so there is abnormal vibration when a certain organ and tissue has pathological changes. The arterial blood flow is squeezed and deformed which causing turbulence and abnormal vibrations, which are fused with a larger cluster of sound waves transmitted by the heart and then transmitted to the whole body. The investigators can feel this kind of sound waves which combine abnormal vibration waves by touching different levels of arteries close to the body surface, including the radial artery. At the same time, Professor Lucheng Song's team has conducted in-depth research on the characteristic unsmooth pulse of stable coronary heart disease, liver cirrhosis, gastritis and other diseases.During pregnancy, due to the significant increase in blood flow and maternal changes , the shape of sound waves transmitted to the radial artery in the artery will be changed. Professor Lucheng Song found in clinical practice that the pregnant pulse will have different sensations of smoothness and penetration in different parts of the finger, by touching different levels of depth and the part of the radial artery. It was found that the pulse condition of normal pregnant women in the middle and third trimester of pregnancy was different from that of normal non-pregnant women in different level and part of radial artery.This study will verify the efficacy of pulse diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine in the diagnosis of pregnancy and lay a foundation for the diagnosis of abnormal pregnancy.
