What Is a Carotid Pulse?
Carotid pulse traicing (CPT) is a process of carotid wall pulsation caused by the contraction of the heart, which causes blood to flow. It can be recorded on the carotid pulsation curve by placing the pulse sensor there. . Its main clinical use is to measure the systolic time interval (STI). In addition, you can understand the rhythm, heart rate, ejection rate, and elasticity of the arterial wall. The detection of abnormal patterns has important reference value for the diagnosis of certain cardiovascular diseases.
