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 ...

Central pulse wave velocity is responsible for increased brachial‐ankle pulse wave velocity in subclinical hypothyroidism

Clinical Endocrinology, 2007
SummaryObjective  Subclinical hypothyroidism affects 5–15% of the general population, and is associated with increased morbidity from cardiovascular disease. We recently reported a significant increase in brachial‐ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV), a parameter of arterial stiffening and an independent predictor for the presence of cardiovascular ...

Arterial pulse wave velocity in coronary arteries

2006 International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2006
Pulse wave velocity is related to arterial stiffness. Pulse wave velocity changes with age and disease and is a useful indicator of cardiovascular disease. Different methods are used for evaluating pulse wave velocity in systemic vessels, but none is applicable to coronary arteries.

Investigation of pulse wave velocity in arteries

2012 35th International Conference on Telecommunications and Signal Processing (TSP), 2012
The article deals with the investigation of pulse wave propagation in arteries. A part of work involves also design and realization of devices serving for scanning of pulse wave by reflective photoplethysmography. Microcontroller with integrated A/D converter is used for conversion from analog to digital signal.

Pulse wave velocity and hypertension

1987
Of the many factors implicated in the genesis and maintenance of elevated arterial pressure, the pulsatile function of the arterial system has received little attention in comparison to other cardiovascular related phenomena such as increase in peripheral resistance, regulation of cardiac output, the role of the autonomic nervous system, glomerular ...

Noninvasive determination of pulse-wave velocity in mice

American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 1997
Some transgenic mice have abnormal vascular function, but arterial geometry and dynamics are difficult to evaluate. To examine whether ultrasonic velocimetry could be used to determine arterial pulse-wave velocity (PWV) in mice, a custom-made 20-MHz pulsed Doppler instrument was used to obtain blood flow velocity signals from the aortic arch and the ...

Metabolic syndrome and arterial pulse wave velocity

Acta Cardiologica, 2010
The metabolic syndrome is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. It is important to examine the relation of the metabolic syndrome with the early stages of atherosclerosis. We sought to determine the impact of the metabolic syndrome, defined with International Diabetes Federation criteria, on arterial pulse wave velocity.Four hundred

Pulse Wave Velocity and Pulse Wave Analysis in Experimental Animals

2012
Until a few years ago, pulse wave velocity in experimental animals (mice, rats, rabbits, etc.) could only be measured by invasive methods. The carotid or femoral artery was surgically isolated and catheterized to assess intra-arterial pressure. The carotid and femoral signals were measured simultaneously, and the pulse wave transit time was then ...

Instruments for Pulse Wave Analysis and Measurement of Pulse Wave Velocity

2012
Over the last few years, a lot of new instruments for pulse wave analysis or measurement of pulse wave velocity have been launched onto the market. It seems that their main aim is to supply operator-independent devices, which can perform faster, while the accuracy of the measurement or the scientific soundness of the algorithms used are of secondary ...
