Pulse Simulator, screen shot #3:

Very choppy + sinking pulse

This pulse has all the parameters set to normal except that it is very choppy, and sinking. The choppiness is displayed as the random irregularities in the Time Profiles Animation. Because of the sinking quality, it appears strongest in the deep position. In addition, the palpation depth has been set to show the finger position in the deep position where this pulse would be felt the strongest.

A pulse that is both choppy and sinking may indicate Stagnation of Blood affecting Organs at a deep level. Biomedical correspondences of this pulse type include arteriosclerosis, blood clots, and circulatory blockages of various kinds.
