Limited value of pulse wave analysis in assessing arterial wave reflection and stiffness in the pulmonary artery

Abstract We explored the use of the augmentation index (AI) based on pulse wave analysis (PWA) in the pulmonary circulation as a measure of wave reflection and arterial stiffness in individuals with and without pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (...
