English abstract:
Pulse wave velocity (PWV) has been shown to be a reliable marker for arterial stiffness. Its accuracy depends heavily on the estimation of the transit time (TT) between proximally and distally measured pulse waveforms. Several methods of determining the TT exist, but no consensus for the standardization of one of them has been reached yet. In this work, various state-of-theart TT estimation methods and the resulting PWV values are examined.
