“A man is as old as his
arteries.”Thomas Sydenham, 1624-1689
“Arterial aging”• Every heart beat generates a pulse wave, which disperses in the
human body. Young and healthy vessels are absorbing the energy of the wave – vascular walls are cushioning.
• When vessels are ageing. Over time they are getting stiff – vascular walls are not cushioning anymore. The travel speed of the pulse wave is increasing (pulse wave velocity – PWV).
• Early detection of vascular aging is important to prevent CVD and Hypertension.
Blood pressure 137/91 mmHg
Blood pressure 137/91 mmHg – What is the difference?
Why Measure Arterial Stiffness?
• Reflects the true arterial wall damage
• Has an independent predictive value for CV events(independent of the traditional risk factors)
• A marker of earlier TOD compared to LVH and
albuminuria
Increased Arterial Stiffness cause
• Increases vascular afterload with a propensity to develop LVH
• Decreases coronary perfusion pressure
• Increases myocardial oxygen demand and sub-endocardial ischemia
• Increases flow turbulence, endothelial dysfunction & atherogenesis
APWV measured was a significant predictor of cardiovascular
complications, above and beyond mean arterial pressure.
Prognostic Value of Aortic Pulse Wave Velocity as Index of Arterial
Stiffness in the General Population
(Circulation. 2006)
Vascular Stiffness Measurements as
a Prognostic Indicator
An increase in PWV by 1.0 m/sec increases
the risk of CV events by 14%
Speed of the wave is related to the stiffness of the
artery it is traveling in
The stiffer the artery;
the higher the wave speed
Wave speed is proportional to the square
root of arterial stiffness
Assessment of Arterial Stiffness
1. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) (The gold standard measurement of arterial stiffness)
1. Central aortic pressure
2. Augmentation index
Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV)
• In young adults, arteries are distensible, thus wave travelvelocity is relatively low. The reflected wave is seen indiastole.
• In older people and in arteriosclerosis, the pulse wavevelocity is high, the reflected wave is fater &superimposed on the systolic wave leading to highersystolic pressure and shorter diastolic time.

Central aortic pulse waveform in different age groups
PWV predicts overall survival in end-stage renal disease patients
Blacher et al. 1999
Probability of survival (all-cause mortality) in end-stage renal disease patients according to the level of aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) divided in tertiles(P< .0001).
What creates central BP?
• Stroke volume
• Aortic stiffness (compliance / Windkessel)
• Systemic vascular resistance (“runoff”)
• Reflected pressure wave
The major organs (brain, heart, and kidney) see central arterial BP and not brachial BP.
Therefore, brachial systolic and pulse BPs measured are not always reliable measures of central aortic systolic and pulse BPs.
Central BP & PP
• Among 3520 participants, central and brachial pulse pressures were more strongly related to vascular hypertrophy and extent of atherosclerosis than were systolic pressures.
• Central pulse pressure was more strongly related to all 3 arterial measures than was brachial pulse pressure .
• central pulse pressure predicted cardiovascular events more strongly than brachial pulse pressure
• In conclusion, central pulse pressure is more strongly related to vascular hypertrophy, extent of atherosclerosis, and cardiovascular events than is brachial blood pressure.
Beta-blockers not effectively protect against cardiovascular events as it’s central systolic pressure

CONCLUSIONS
1. Measuring TOD improves stratification of cardiovascular
risk
2. Central blood pressure is more strongly related to vascular
hypertrophy, extent of atherosclerosis, and cardiovascular
events.
3. Arterial stiffness appears to be a useful measure for TOD,
and must be used for monitoring patients
4. The effect of drugs on arterial stiffness seems to be
important e.g ARBs and CBBs
