Limitations and pitfalls of non-invasive measurement of arterial pressure wave reflections and pulse wave velocity
In this paper, we briefly revise some of the most widely applied methods to non-invasively assess pressure wave reflection (augmentation index) and arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity; PWV) in clinical vascular research. It is clear that the pressure waveform alone provides insufficient informat...
