Abstract: We apply the maximal overlap discrete wavelet transform (MODWT)-based spectral density estimation method to measure heart rate variability (HRV) from short-duration pulse wave signals ...

Purpose Hypertension is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and home blood pressure ...

High Blood Pressure Has the Biggest Impact on Brain Health as We Age. When assessing the 17 modifiable risk factors, high blood pressure (hypertension) emerged as the one with the biggest impact.

Accuracy of the Oscillometric Method. The accuracy and/or reliability of different oscillometric devices has been studied over many years. [15,22,24,25,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34] To evaluate the ...

Blood pressure measurement is an essential clinical skill. Oscillometric NIBP monitors are used frequently in newborn intensive care units, and each day many NIBPs are carried out quickly and ...

Objectives We aimed to explore sex-specific differences in resting blood pressure (BP) reduction and associated cardiovascular adaptations following isometric exercise training (IET).Methods 100 ...
