Effects of cardiac timing and peripheral resistance on measurement of pulse wave velocity for assessment of arterial stiffness

To investigate the effects of heart rate (HR), left ventricular ejection time (LVET) and wave reflection on arterial stiffness as assessed by pulse wave velocity (PWV), a pulse wave propagation simulation system (PWPSim) based on the transmission line model of the arterial tree was developed and was...
