P1.06 THE ACCURACY OF CENTRAL SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE DETERMINED FROM THE SECOND SYSTOLIC PEAK OF THE PERIPHERAL PRESSURE WAVEFORM

Central blood pressure may be a better predictor of cardiovascular risk than peripheral blood pressure. The central systolic blood pressure (cSBP) can be estimated from the late systolic shoulder of the radial pulse waveform (pSBP2). We compared pSBP2 with cSBP derived by a generalized transfer func...
