P6.07 A STUDY TO DETERMINE IF THE REFLECTED WAVE TRANSIT TIME FROM BRACHIAL SUPRASYSTOLIC WAVEFORM ANALYSIS IS REPRESENTATIVE OF LARGE ARTERY STIFFNESS
Background: Aortic stiffness is clinically important, but measurement can be time consuming. The ‘reflected wave transit time’ (RWTT) is thought to represent aortic stiffness and, since this can be measured quickly by brachial cuff oscillometry, could be a useful new test. This study aimed to compar...
