P9.05 INFLUENCE OF PERIPHERAL BLOOD PRESSURE CALIBRATION ON THE ESTIMATION OF CENTRAL BLOOD PRESSURE

open access: yesArtery Research, 2009
Objective: To examine the influence of calibration of peripheral blood pressure on the estimation of central systolic blood pressure (cSBP) from peripheral arterial waveforms using a transfer function.

Central hypertension is a non‐negligible cardiovascular risk factor

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2022
High blood pressure (BP) confers cardiovascular risk. However, the clinical value of central BP remains debatable. In this article, we aim to briefly review the prognosis, diagnosis, and treatment of central hypertension.

Relationship between 24 h ambulatory central blood pressure and left ventricular mass – Rationale and design of a prospective multicenter study

open access: yesArtery Research, 2012
The prognostic superiority of ambulatory over clinic blood pressure has been repeatedly proven. However, due to the mechanical properties of the arterial system, systolic and pulse pressures are higher in the brachial artery than in the ascending aorta ...

Association of genetic variation with systolic and diastolic blood pressure among African Americans: the Candidate Gene Association Resource study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The prevalence of hypertension in African Americans (AAs) is higher than in other US groups; yet, few have performed genome-wide association studies (GWASs) in AA.

Central blood pressure is associated with trunk flexibility in older adults

open access: yesArtery Research, 2017
Background: Increase in central blood pressure is more predictive of future cardiovascular disease than increased brachial blood pressure. Arterial stiffness causes an early return of the reflected pressure wave to the aorta, with subsequently augmented ...

Clinical Assessment of Central Blood Pressure [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Hypertension Reviews, 2012
Central aortic blood pressure (CBP) is increasingly considered a better cardiovascular prognostic marker than conventional cuff brachial blood pressure. Because CBP cannot be directly measured noninvasively, it has to be estimated from peripheral pressure pulses.

Central vs. peripheral blood pressure components as determinants of retinal microvessel diameters

open access: yesArtery Research, 2014
Background: We assessed association of retinal arteriolar and venular diameters with central and peripheral blood pressure (BP). Methods: We post-processed retinal photographs from 514 participants randomly recruited from a Flemish population (mean age,

Reference Values for Central Blood Pressure

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2014
We recently read with great interest the study in the Journal by Cheng et al. [(1)][1] on central (aortic) arterial blood pressure thresholds. We highly appreciate the ongoing work of our colleagues in this research field and agree that the establishment of event-based cutoff values for ...

Community based trial of home blood pressure monitoring with nurse-led telephone support in patients with stroke or transient ischaemic attack recently discharged from hospital. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
BACKGROUND: High blood pressure in patients with stroke increases the risk of recurrence but management in the community is often inadequate. Home blood pressure monitoring may increase patients' involvement in their care, increase compliance, and reduce
