Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV)
The recognized parameter for Arterial Stiffness measurement, using validated carotid-femoral method. Provides consistent results through oscillometric technology. Supports PWV measurement between any two pulse sites.

Pulse Wave Analysis (PWA)
Central Aortic Pressure (cSBP) and Augmentation Index (AIx) are cardiovascular event predictors,
determined from the brachial wave through a verified transfer function.
Delivers additional hemodynamic values1 Stroke Volume, Cardiac Output, and Subendocardial Viability Ratio (SEVR).
Method and background information: PWA (vascular-diagnostics.com)
Flow Mediated Slowing (FMS)
PWV-based reactive hyperemia measurement, arterial stress induced by temporal occlusion. Endothelial function1 indicator utilizing automated testing procedure, correlates with gold-standard FMD.
Method and background information: FMS (vascular-diagnostics.com)
Pulse Amplitude Ratio (PAR)
Perfusion-based reactive hyperemia measurement, arterial stress induced by temporal occlusion. Normalized results by bilateral finger PPG.
Method and background information: PAR (vascular-diagnostics.com)
