Determination of wave speed and distensibility of flexible tubes using diameter and velocity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
It is well accepted that wave speed is one of the key factors describing wave propagation in arteries. Local wave speed is directly related to the mechanical properties of the arterial wall and is widely used to determine the arterial distensibility ...

Estimated pulse wave velocity as a measure of vascular aging

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Background Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), the referent measure of aortic stiffness, is an established measure of vascular aging. In studies where cfPWV cannot be measured, alternative methods are needed to help promote research on vascular ...

Heart-Ankle Pulse Wave Velocity Is Superior to Brachial-Ankle Pulse Wave Velocity in Detecting Aldosterone-Induced Arterial Stiffness

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Primary aldosteronism (PA) is associated with higher arterial stiffness compared to essential hypertension (EH). However, few studies have compared different pulse wave velocity (PWV) parameters to detect aldosterone-induced arterial stiffness.

Aortic Pulse Wave Velocity and Carotid-Femoral Pulse Wave Velocity: Similarities and Discrepancies [PDF]

open access: yesHypertension Research, 2007
The objectives of this study were to determine the relationship between carotid-femoral (cfPWV) and aortic pulse wave velocity (aPWV) and to compare their modulators and association with coronary artery disease (CAD). We studied 107 consecutive patients (68 men) with a mean age of 60.49+/-8.31 years who had stable angina and had been referred for ...

Hemodynamic Data Analysis and Site of Measurement in Children and Adolescents

open access: yesArtery Research, 2020
Pulse wave velocity is a method of functional vascular evaluation. The gold standard is the carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity measurement. However, the software allows measurement among radial, carotid and femoral artery.

Different circadian patterns of arterial stiffness are responsible for increased cardiovascular mortality in hemodialyzed patients

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2021
We hypothesized that volume changes during 48‐h are associated with different circadian patterns of arterial stiffness on non‐dialysis day compared to dialysis day and that the night‐time increase of arterial stiffness is associated with higher mortality.

Analysis of local hemodynamics in central and peripheral arteries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.To understand the function of the cardiovascular system, the propagation of waves in arteries has to be investigated, since they carry information which can

Assessing cerebral arterial pulse wave velocity using 4D flow MRI

open access: yesJournal of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism, 2021
Intracranial arterial stiffening is a potential early marker of emerging cerebrovascular dysfunction and could be mechanistically involved in disease processes detrimental to brain function via several pathways.
