P136 Determinants of Arterial Stiffness in Children Using Population-indexed Anthropometric and Hemodynamic Parameters
Background: Arterial stiffness is a significant cardiovascular risk factor. Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) is the standard for measuring arterial stiffness, but indices such as central augmentation index (cAIx) and carotid artery elasticity (cE[p]) also correlate to arterial stiffness....
