Persian Medicine (PM) uses wrist temperature/humidity and pulse to determine a person's health status and temperament. However, the diagnosis may depend on the physician's interpretation, hindering the combination of PM with modern medical methods. This study proposes a system for measuring pulse signals and temperament detection based on PM. The system uses recorded thermal distribution, a temperament questionnaire, and a customized pulse measurement device. The collected data can be sent to a physician via a telecare system for interpretation and prescription of medications. The system was clinically implemented for patient care, assessed the temperaments of 34 participants, and recorded thermal images of the wrist, back of the hand, and entire face. The study suggests that a customized device for measuring pulse waves and other criteria based on PM can be incorporated into a telemedicine system, reducing the dependency on PM specialists for diagnosis.
