Age-Specific Acute Changes in Carotid–Femoral Pulse Wave Velocity With Head-up Tilt
BACKGROUND: Aortic stiffness as measured by carotid–femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) is known to depend on blood pressure (BP), and this dependency may change with age. Therefore, the hydrostatic BP gradient resulting from a change in body posture may elicit a cfPWV change that is age-dependent....
