[Problem] To provide a neurogenic baroreflex sensitivity measurement device, neurogenic baroreflex sensitivity measurement program and neurogenic baroreflex sensitivity measurement method capable of easily and objectively measuring neurogenic baroreflex sensitivity that is not dependent on vascular hardness without using blood pressure or pulsations in the diameter of the carotid artery.;[Solution] The neurogenic baroreflex sensitivity measurement device comprises: a pulse wave data-acquiring unit (41) for acquiring pulse wave data of an artery; a normalized pulse wave volume-calculating unit (42) for calculating a normalized pulse wave volume on the basis of the pulse wave data; a pulse interval-acquiring unit (43) for acquiring pulse intervals corresponding to the pulse wave data; a baroreflex series-detecting unit (44) for detecting baroreflex series in which the normalized pulse wave volume and pulse interval both increase or decrease for at least three beats in a row; and a neurogenic baroreflex sensitivity-calculating unit (45) for calculating the slope of a regression line representing the correlation between the normalized pulse wave volume and the pulse interval in a baroreflex series as the neurogenic baroreflex sensitivity, which is an index representing the neurogenic baroreflex function.
