Pulse wave velocity (PWV) in arteries is an estimator for arterial stiffness. As velocity is calculated as distance per time, the accuracy and reliability of PWV measurements depends heavily on the estimation of the pulse transit time (PTT). Several methods for the estimation of the PTT exist, often resulting in different PWV values. They rely on the exact determination of specific points in the pulse...
Aortic pulse wave velocity is an independent predictive indicator for all cause mortality and cardiovascular morbidity. Unfortunately it is only invasively accessible and thus the A. carotis–A. femoralis pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) is recommended as a non-invasive substitute. This work presents a model based analysis method for the beat-to-beat online determination of an arbitrary, peripheral pulse...
