Abstract:
Objective To investigate the evaluative meaning of the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)sweat detector and temperature detector to atheriosclerosis obliterans (ASO).Methods 68 limb plantar of ASO patients and 20 left plantar of healthy subjects were tested by TCM sweat detector and temperature detector to observe the differences of sweating rate and temperature between the two groups.Results ①Sweating rate and temperature of ASO patients' limb plantar showed different graphic morphology from that of healthy control group.The sweating rate of patients was worse than that of healthy subjects in responding to external stimuli.②ASO patients'limb plantar baseline values of the sweating rate and temperature were lower than that of healthy subjects,and the result was statistical significant (P<0.01).Conclusion Data obtained from TCM sweat detector and temperature detector can be used to distinguish ASO patients from healthy people.
