P.25 Radial-Digital Pulse Wave Velocity: A Non-Invasive Method for Assessing Stiffness of Peripheral Small Arteries

Pulse wave velocity (PWV) has been used to evaluate arterial stiffness of large arteries. Here, we examine the feasibility of radial-digital PWV (RD-PWV) as a measure of stiffness of smaller arteries, and its response to changes in local mean arterial pressure. In 29 healthy subjects, we used Compli...
