Provided is a technology of allowing evaluation of a vascular endothelial function stably and accurately at relatively low introduction cost, regardless of an examiner's skill. Using a pressure applying belt including an inflatable bladder, which is similar to a cuff for blood pressure measurement, the vascular endothelial function is evaluated. As pre-processing, while an arm tightening force by the pressure applying belt is changed, a maximum pulse wave pressure being a an air pressure inside the inflatable bladder at the time when a pulse wave amplitude is maximum is identified, and the pulse wave amplitude at this time is recorded. Next, occlusion processing of causing occlusion in the arm and releasing the occlusion is performed. Then, as post-processing, the pulse wave amplitude is measured while the air pressure inside the inflatable bladder is kept at the maximum pulse wave pressure, and the pulse wave amplitude at the time of its peak is recorded.
