Investigation of Pulse Transit Times utilizing multisite reflectance photoplethysmography under conditions of artificially induced peripheral vasoconstriction [PDF]
, 2014 Pulse Transit Time (PTT) is the time it takes for an arterial pulsation to travel from the heart to a peripheral site. In recent times, PTT has been advocated as a marker for assessing increased vascular resistance.

Cardiorespiratory changes associated with micro-arousals during naps
Neurobiology of Sleep and Circadian Rhythms, 2023 The autonomic nervous system (ANS) and the central nervous system (CNS) interplay during sleep, particularly during phasic events such as micro-arousals, has been the subject of several studies. The underlying mechanisms of such relationship which remain

Pulse transit time as an index of vascular reactivity
Journal of the Pakistan Medical AssociationPulse transit time (PTT) is a non-invasive method for measuring arterial compliance and stiffness, which are excellent predictors of cardiovascular disease. This study aims to determine whether PTT can be used to precisely monitor vascular reactivity in

Changes in the bilateral pulse transit time difference with a moving arm [PDF]
, 2018 BACKGROUND: Changes of pulse transit time (PTT) induced by arm position were studied for unilateral arm. However, consistency of the PTT changes was not validated for both arm sides. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to quantify the PTT changes between horizontal
