Limitation of Brachial-Ankle Pulse Wave Velocity in Assessing the Risk of Stroke: Importance of Instantaneous Blood Pressure

Background and Objective: The carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity is a well-established index of aortic stiffness, and the brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) has recently been developed as a new method for evaluating arterial stiffness. However, whether the baPWV is also useful in evaluating...
