Diastolic Augmentation Index Improves Radial Augmentation Index in Assessing Arterial Stiffness
Arterial stiffness is an important risk factor for cardiovascular events. Radial augmentation index (AI (r)) can be more conveniently measured compared with carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV). However, the performance of AI (r) in assessing arterial stiffness is limited. This study proposes...
