Pulse wave velocities in the aorta

Bulletin of Mathematical Biology, 1984
This paper is an analytical study on the pulse wave velocities in the aorta. In conformity to a physiologic state of loading, the distensibility of the vessel wall has been accounted for. The wall material is treated by using the theory of large elastic deformations. The orthotropicity of wall tissues and the effect of the surrounding tissues have been

Pulse wave analysis and pulse wave velocity

Journal of Hypertension, 2003
The study of the pulse using the technique of applanation tonometry is undergoing a resurgence with the development of new computerized equipment. We aim here to present a critical review of the uses, potential uses, strengths and weaknesses of the technique of applanation tonometry for the assessment of augmentation index and pulse wave velocity.

CAROTID‐FEMORAL PULSE WAVE VELOCITY*

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1968
AbstractSimultaneous records of the pulse waves were obtained from the right common carotid artery and the right femoral artery by means of piezo‐electric microphones in 26 persons whose ages ranged from 15 to 92 years. The time difference between the foot points of the waves from these two sites was termed TCF.A significant correlation was found ...

Pulse Wave Velocity in Kawasaki Disease

Angiology, 2016
Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute childhood febrile disease of unknown etiology. It exhibits not only coronary artery aneurysms in some cases but also systemic vasculitis. Whether KD is associated with accelerated atherosclerosis remains debatable. The measurement of pulse wave velocity (PWV) is useful as a simple, noninvasive measurement of arterial ...

[Pulse wave velocity].

Rinsho byori. The Japanese journal of clinical pathology, 2004
Pulse wave velocity (PWV) reflects arterial stiffness. PWV correlates with other markers reflecting the severity of atherosclerosis such as the findings of ultrasound examination of carotid artery. In addition, several studies demonstrated that increased PWV is a predictor of future cardiovascular events in patients with either hypertension or diabetes

Wave Travel and Pulse Wave Velocity

2018
Waves generated by the heart travel down the aorta and major conduit arteries. These waves are pressure waves, flow or velocity waves or diameter waves. The ratio of the distance Δx, and the time it takes for the foot of the wave to travel over this distance, Δt, gives the wave speed or pulse wave velocity, PWV=Δx/Δt.

Carotid–femoral pulse wave velocity in the elderly

Journal of Hypertension, 2014
Predictive value of arterial stiffness in cardiovascular disease has been recognized for many decades. Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), as a noninvasive measurement, has been recommended as a gold standard of arterial stiffness, and we believe that this surrogate of arterial stiffness has been refined to the point that its utility in ...
