10.5 COMPARISON OF ARTERIAL STIFFNESS ASSESSED BY POPMÈTRE® WITH ARTERIAL STIFFNESS ASSESSED BY APPLANATION TONOMETRY: A CLINICAL STUDY

Background: Large artery stiffness is recognized as a strong, independent marker of cardiovascular risk, mainly through aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV). pOpmètre® is a new non-invasive method, which estimates aortic PWV through finger-toe (FT) wave analysis.
