2.1 A METHOD FOR THE MEASUREMENT OF PRESSURE SENSITIVITY OF CAROTID-FEMORAL PULSE WAVE VELOCITY IN HUMANS
Background: Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), a marker of cardiovascular disease, is modified by both blood pressure and changes in arterial wall properties. Current cfPWV measurement does not differentiate between effects of blood pressure and arterial wall properties. Animal studies sho...
