A Physiology-Based Ambulatory Arterial Stiffness Index Derived from the Arterial Time Constant
Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) is the reference standard for the non-invasive assessment of arterial stiffness but requires dedicated vascular equipment and is not routinely available in clinical practice. Previous studies have shown that arterial stiffness can be estimated from 24-hour ambulatory blood pr...
