A new publication from Opto-Electronic Sciences; DOI 10.29026/oes.2024.240009 , discusses a smart photonic wristband for pulse wave monitoring. Pulse waves are a prominent component of physiological ...

Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) is a measure of arterial stiffness and is associated with cardiovascular event ...

Since the aorta is the major component of arterial elasticity, the carotid-femoral PWV offers the simplest reproducible and noninvasive evaluation of regional stiffness. This measurement allows the ...

Measuring a menopausal woman's pulse wave at her wrist can detect circulatory system changes that aren't evident with blood pressure readings. Menopause's effect on these radial pulse wave harmonics ...

A new technique to measure the stiffness of the aorta, a common risk factor for heart disease, involves measuring the pulse in the finger or on the arm, combined with an individual's age and body mass ...
