Background The Forrester classification remains a cornerstone for assessing haemodynamic status in heart failure, yet its ...

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide and its prevalence is still rising. Arterial stiffness has proven to be a valuable parameter for the ...

A nanoengineered wrist-worn triboelectric sensor captures arterial pulse waves under real-world conditions and uses machine learning to classify driver fatigue with up to 98 percent accuracy.

Photoplethysmography (PPG) is a simple optical technique for detection of blood volume changes in the microvascular bed of a biological tissue 1. Currently, PPG is actively used to assess different ...

Researchers found that estimated Pulse Wave Velocity (ePWV), a readily available marker of arterial stiffness, has been shown to be an effective addition in identifying patients at risk of mortality ...

Objectives To evaluate the prognostic value of carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), a marker of aortic stiffness, for ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Sciences; DOI 10.29026/oes.2024.240009 , discusses a smart photonic wristband for pulse wave monitoring. Pulse waves are a prominent component of physiological ...
