What are the main benefits for measuring arterial stiffness parameters with Arteriograph?

Innovation in cardiovascular treatments

The worsening condition of arteries is generally detected only when their stiffening process has already reached a significant level. It is essential, however, for the prevention or effective treatment of cardiovascular diseases to recognise their early, asymptomatic signs and act accordingly.

Arteriograph offers ¬– among many other parameters ¬– the aortic pulse wave velocity (PWVao) as a solution to the above problem. The measured pulse wave propagation speed is proportional to the rigidity of the aortic wall, thus allowing the detection of forming plaques. The results of the measurements with Arteriograph are useful data for the doctor assessing them to suggest appropriate prevention steps or treatment for a patient even before a developed stage of their cardiovascular disease. Thus, major cardiovascular events and the death of patients related to these problems can be avoided.

Arteriograph was designed with regard to the relevant medical guidelines (e.g., ESH), and continues to support the latest medical and technical requirements.
