Local pulse wave velocity (PWV) is evolving as one of the important determinants of arterial
hemodynamics, localized vessel stiffening associated with several pathologies, and a host …

This study proposes a low-cost, high-sensitivity sensor of beat-to-beat local pulse wave
velocity (PWV), to be used in a cuffless blood pressure monitor (BPM). Objective: We design …

Previous studies have found that the non-invasive blood pressure measurement method
based on the oscillometric method is inaccurate when an arrhythmia occurs. Therefore, we …

Objective: Blood pressure (BP) data can influence therapeutic decisions for some patients,
while non-invasive devices that continuously monitor BP can provide patients with a more …

Local pulse wave velocity (local PWV) provides localized information on the stiffness of a
particular segment of the heterogeneous arterial bed. As a screening tool for a host of …

This work presents a new dual-photoplethysmographic (PPG) system for pulse transit time
(PTT) monitoring. An experiment has been set up in order to compare the PTT measurement …

Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) and central blood pressure (BP) are prognostic
stiffness markers for assessing vascular health. In this study, a group of young (20≦ age < …

Ultrasound measurement of arterial geometric properties is a fundamental need concerning
cardiovascular disease management, as it is required for the assessment of endothelial …

The jugular venous pulse (JVP) is an important physiological signal reflecting the right atrial
dynamics. The gold standard approach of invasive central venous line catheterization is …

The local PWV and its pressure-dependent changes within a cardiac cycle are potential
biomarkers for cardiovascular risk stratification. However, the influence of pulse wave …
