Abstract

Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (PWV) is considered the gold standard for arterial stiffness assessment in clinical practice. A large number of devices to measure PWV have been developed and validated. We reviewed different validation studies of PWV estimation techniques and assessed their conformity to the Artery Society Guidelines and the American Heart Association recommendations.
