1 Αυγ 2002 · This review analyses methods and devices used worldwide to evaluate the arterial stiffness. Three main methodologies are based upon analysis of pulse transit time, of wave contour of the arterial pulse, and of direct measurement of arterial geometry and pressure, corresponding to regional, systemic and local determination of stiffness.

26 Δεκ 2019 · The gold standard for evaluating arterial stiffness is pulse wave velocity. Recently, cardio-ankle vascular index has been implemented as an easy and highly reproducible measure of arterial...
16 Νοε 2021 · Most cuff-based methods measure brachial–ankle PWV (baPWV), which incorporates several arterial segments, including elastic large arteries such as the descending aorta, and stiffer peripheral arteries in a combined value.
We review the methodology underlying each of these measures, and present an evidence-based critique of their relative merits and limitations. An overview is also given of the drug therapies that may prove useful in the treatment of patients with altered arterial mechanics.
