24 Μαρ 2012 · Arterial stiffness is central to the pathogenesis of isolated systolic hypertension and directly impacts left ventricular afterload, pressure pulsatility in the arterial tree, and its penetration into the microvasculature of target organs such as the brain and kidney.
1 Αυγ 2002 · The most suitable devices are those with direct calculation of surrogate measures of arterial stiffness, such as PWV, arterial compliance, or distensibility, followed by systems with off-line calculation after data acquisition.
Increased arterial stiffness affects the capacity of the aorta and elastic arteries to adapt to pressure variations during the cardiac cycle. The main markers of arterial stiffness are pulse wave velocity (PWV), augmentation index (AIx) and central aortic pressure. They can be measured noninvasively.
