[The development of a detecting meter for pressure pain threshold].
A new instrument for measuring pressure pain strength to different bodily parts is introduced in this paper. For a new measuring appliance, it can be used conveniently for detection and evaluation of a patient's pressure pain threshold value, and for the research of bodily channels and network vessels. The system uses silicone oil as pressure conducting medium of a transducer, and five pressure detecting probes with different surface areas are designed to meet the requirements of the parts to be measured. The system has digital lock function for easy operation.
