Abstract:Objective
This study aimed to ascertain the accuracy of measure arterial stiffness using the HUAWEI GT 3 Pro smartwatch and pOpmètre device against the SphygmoCor (algorithms: intersect tangent and maximum of the second derivate).
Methods
Twenty-three physically active postmenopausal women (age: 58.9 ± 3.2 years; body mass index: 26.3 ± 4.8 kg/m2) were recruited. Carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity, finger-toe pulse wave velocity, and wrist-finger pulse… Show more
