P120 DETERMINANTS OF BRACHIAL-ANKLE PULSE WAVE VELOCITY
It has been proven that aortic pulse wave velocity (aoPWV) the measure of arterial stiffness is a strong and independent predictor of both cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. Beyond the “gold standard” cfPWV brachial-ankle PWV (baPVW) measurement has been accepted for assessing arterial s...

It has been proven that aortic pulse wave velocity (aoPWV) the measure of arterial stiffness is a strong and independent predictor of both cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality. Beyond the “gold standard” cfPWV brachial-ankle PWV (baPVW) measurement has been accepted for assessing arterial stiffness and endorsed into the position paper of Artery Society as a recommended method. The aim of this study was to define the determinants of baPVW.
