Brief Summary
COVID-19 has caused various long-term symptoms affecting different bodily functions. A study shows that traditional Chinese medicine can balance the human body disorder after a virus infection and restore health. The study proposes using pulse diagnosis and cardiac rhythm instruments for disease diagnosis and analysis, decomposing time domain pulse wave signals into different frequency ranges and calculating the "spectral energy ratio" and EP to quantify the patient's pathological pulse. The method has been applied to pulse wave analysis of people with suboptimal health status, and its effectiveness has been preliminarily confirmed. The study aims to find the relationship between these parameters and clinical subjective scale scores, to establish an objective data bridge for Chinese and Western medicine diagnosis. In the future, the analysis method will include more subject data to verify the completeness of the method and establish a feasible prediction model.

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
"Skylark" Pulse Analysis System
Palpation of the 6 pulse positions (right cun, right guan, right chi, left cun, left guan, left chi) measured by the pulse diagnostic instrument are read into the processing program, and then the time domain signal of each pulse position is analyzed in sequence .
6 sceond
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Post-Acute Covid-19 Syndrome questionnaires
1 day
Study Arms (2)
Health Status
Normal examination in recent six months and not fit inclusion criteria of suboptimal health status.
Post-Covid syndrome
(A) Age between 20-70 years old, male or female. (B) Have a history of Covid-19 infection. (C) It has been 3 months since the day when the rapid screening test was negative. Antigen positive turn to negative (D) At least one symptom that cannot be explained by other diagnoses and lasts for at least 2 months after being infected with Covid-19.
Interventions
Palpation of the 6 pulse positions (right cun, right guan, right chi, left cun, left guan, left chi) measured by the pulse diagnostic instrument.
Eligibility Criteria
Patients who have at least one symptom that cannot be explained by other diagnoses and lasts for at least 2 months after being infected with Covid-19.
You may qualify if:
- Adults the age between 20-70 years old with a history of Covid-19 infection,have been an interval of 3 months from the day when the rapid screening test was negative and have some unexplained symptom after being infected with Covid-19 and last for at least 2 months.
You may not qualify if:
- Patient characteristics: have been diagnosed with Covid-19 within seven days, positive in the rapid test,pregnant women or take drugs that could easily affect the heart rate, such as β-Blocker, etc., or installed a pacemaker.
- Disease characteristics: Subjects who have been diagnosis of mental illness by doctors,or diseases such as cancer that fall under the scope of major diseases covered by the national health insurance .
