Limitations of Augmentation Index in the Assessment of Wave Reflection in Normotensive Healthy Individuals
OBJECTIVES: Augmentation index (AIx) is widely used as a measure of wave reflection. We compared the relationship between AIx and age, height and sex with ‘gold standard’ measures of wave reflection derived from measurements of pressure and flow to establish how well AIx measures wave reflection. MA...
