The research and practice of double-cuff method used to calculate pulse wave velocity
Objective:A new method of measuring pulse wave velocity
double-cuff method
has been proposed based on oscillometric method and used to practice to validate its reliability in this paper.Methods:In this method
two cuffs are used to collect pulse wave signals of humerus and oar artery respectively.We analyse the two signals’time difference Δt by choosing wave boot as the pulse beating’ start point.Pulse wave velocity can be calculated according to the formula PWV=ΔS/Δt
in which ΔS is the distance between humerus and oar artery and can be measured by a soft ruler.Results:The double cuff method
which has the advantages of simple operation
speedy measurement and low cost
can measure pulse wave velocity reliably
accurately
fast and simply.Conclusions:The pulse wave velocity measured by this new method
which can reflect the differences between normal people and critical or already hypertension suffers
Repeated measures-based comparison of patient-reported outcomes for patients with hypertension having different medication regimens and blood pressure levels
Echocardiographic changes in patients with acromegaly with hypertension and abnormal glucose metabolism
Degree of influence of hypertension and type 2 diabetes on early heart rate variability after cardiac bypass surgery
Appropriate technology for the hypertension management in the primary hospitals:an multi-center research
Influencing factors of hypertension control for hypertensive patients in community
