Overview

Perspective article highlights accessibility of central arterial health assessment in cardiovascular disease prevention.

Key Points

  • The aim is to emphasize the importance of the Windkessel function in arterial health and promote accessible assessment techniques.
  • Discussion of traditional methods such as cfPWV for assessing aortic stiffness.
  • Contrast with newer simplified techniques like baPWV and single-cuff oscillometric devices.
  • Assessment of challenges in routine clinical applications and the role of innovations.
  • Traditional cfPWV is the gold standard but lacks accessibility in clinical settings.
  • Emergence of baPWV and oscillometric devices improves ease of use for population screening.
  • Shift towards practical assessment tools enhances early CVD detection and prevention.
