Arteriograph
Important cardiovascular parameters can be assessed quickly with PWV and PWA measurement technology using the Arteriograph system, providing valuable insights into vascular health in less than 2 minutes.
Pulse Wave Analysis (PWA) & Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV) measurements are provided by the Arteriograph system and are used to evaluate arterial and cardiovascular function in a simple, non-invasive, and scientifically validated way.
With PWV and PWA measurements, valuable information can be obtained to:
- Check how stiff the arteries are and the condition of blood vessels
- See changes in cardiovascular health
- Improve patient monitoring
- Support better and more personal treatment decisions
Changes in cardiovascular condition can be followed over time through repeated PWV and PWA measurements, allowing the effects of treatments, lifestyle modifications, and preventive strategies to be evaluated through the monitoring of individual cardiovascular parameters.
This allows:
- Treatment effects can be measured clearly
- Patient progress can be recorded
- Long-term changes in cardiovascular health can be followed
- Clinical decisions can be supported with clear data
PWV and PWA measurement devices are designed to support:
- Cardiovascular screening
- Preventive healthcare programs
- Patient follow-up
- Clinical research studies
- Evidence-based cardiovascular assessment
The Arteriograph is an innovative, patented (US Pat. No. 20070106162), and non-invasive technique and device that accurately assesses Aortic Pulse Wave Velocity (PWVao) and performing Pulse Wave Analysis (PWA) using a single upper arm cuff. The novelty of the Arteriograph device in detecting the mentioned parameters is that a single upper arm cuff is used as a sensor, but in a very special condition; the cuff is pressurised to a suprasystolic level, ensuring to obtain pure pressure signals (waves). Arteriograph is an office device, but a portable and ideal tool for screening purposes.
This device provides the following parameters – within 2 minutes (!) – absolutely user independently (only a software function or a push button is used at the start):
