P49 QUANTIFYING WAVE REFLECTION IN CHILDREN: INVASIVE VS NON-INVASIVE CENTRAL AUGMENTATION INDEX AND REFLECTION MAGNITUDE AND THEIR ASSOCIATION WITH LEFT VENTRICULAR MASS
Objective: The aims of this study in children were to 1) evaluate two brachial oscillometric devices for estimating central augmentation index (AIx) and reflection magnitude (RM), and 2) test whether AIx or RM are associated with left ventricular mass index (LVMI). Methods: Intra-aortic (IA) AIx wa...
