Our study sought to investigate the arterial stiffness assessed by carotid–femoral PWV in the presence of PH. Specifically, we investigated the hypothesis that PWV is increased in patients with PH ...
Since the aorta is the major component of arterial elasticity, the carotid-femoral PWV offers the simplest reproducible and noninvasive evaluation of regional stiffness. This measurement allows the ...
A total of 531 subjects were available for this study, 210 individuals (mean±s.d. age, 27.8±2.8 years; range, 21.3–34.8 years; 54.8% EAs and 53.5% males) from the BP stress study and 321 twins (mean±s ...
Researchers found that estimated Pulse Wave Velocity (ePWV), a readily available marker of arterial stiffness, has been shown to be an effective addition in identifying patients at risk of mortality ...
image: Arterial stiffness is one of the early signs of cardiovascular disease, and arterial stiffening has been observed in children. A recent study suggests that an easy-to-use, non-invasive method ...
A new technique to measure the stiffness of the aorta, a common risk factor for heart disease, involves measuring the pulse in the finger or on the arm, combined with an individual's age and body mass ...
Correction: A previous version of this story misstated that PhysioWave connects to the user's smartphone. It has been updated to state the system uses a dedicated tablet interface. University of ...
Researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology Madrashave proposed a magnet-based sensor that would allow scientists to measure the velocity of blood pulse waves within the carotid artery. Each ...
