Comparison of estimates of central systolic blood pressure and peripheral augmentation index obtained from the Omron HEM-9000AI and SphygmoCor systems

Central blood pressure is increasingly considered to be more predictive of cardiovascular events than peripheral pressure. Central systolic pressure (cSBP) can be estimated from the late systolic shoulder (pSBP2) of the radial pulse waveform. The Omron HEM-9000AI utilizes this technique to non-invas...
