2.4 BRACHIAL CUFF RESERVOIR CHARACTERISTICS AND END-ORGAN MARKERS OF CARDIOVASCULAR RISK IN AUSTRALIAN ADULTS: A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY
Objective: Reservoir-excess pressure measured using tonometry methods predicts cardiovascular events, but the operator-dependency of tonometry is an impediment to widespread use. A cuff-based blood pressure device has been developed to derive reservoir-excess pressure from measured brachial pressure...
