Pulse Wave Analysis and Pulse Wave Velocity
momanometer that provides arterial pressures (brachial systolic and diastolic pressure) is coming under question. The concerns extend well beyond the familiar issue of “white coat” hypertension, home and 24-h blood pressure recordings, and the phase-out of mercury based instruments. These concerns relate to the inaccuracy of all cuff devices for measuring pressure within the brachial artery, th...
متن کاملPulse wave velocity measurement
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. The work describes a use of microcontroller serving for data flow control, communication and analog signal digitalization using integrated analog to digital converter.
متن کاملAge-associated changes in regional aortic pulse wave velocity.
OBJECTIVES This study was designed to determine noninvasively the age-associated changes in regional mechanical properties in normals using phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PCMRI). BACKGROUND It has been well documented that there is a progressive increase in aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) with age. Previously, PWV has been measured at a single aortic location, or has compared art...
متن کاملPulmonary pulse wave velocity as assessed with velocity-encoded MRI
Methods In 15 healthy volunteers (7 male; mean±SD age 19±6 years) pulmonary PWV was prospectively assessed between the proximal main pulmonary artery (MPA) and just before the first branching of the distal left pulmonary artery (LPA). One-directional through-plane velocity-encoded (VE) MRI using breath holds was used to assess the pulmonary flow at the levels of MPA and distal LPA with a tempor...
متن کاملAssessment of pulse wave velocity
1872-9312/$e seefrontmattera2008A doi:10.1016/j.artres.2008.11.002 Summary Measurement of pulse wave velocity is of increasing importance for assessment of arterial stiffness and risk evaluation. Different techniques are available, based either on pressure, distension or Doppler waveforms. Techniques not only differ by the algorithm used to identify specific part of the pulse signal, but also i...
