An effective experimental method has been proposed and used to determine the pulse-wave velocity (PWV) of 257 radial pulse signals. Experimental results show that, compared with the normal pulse, the wiry pulse has an increased PWV(P 0.05). PWV highly correlates with the artery blood pressure. The possible determinants of PWV are analyzed and discussed in reference to clinical diagnosis.
