Abstract (en)
[origin: US2013274620A1] The present invention proposes a method and a device for long-term monitoring of the arterial vascular stiffness and vascular calcification on a particular patient, wherein a characteristic variable for the arterial vascular stiffness is determined exclusively from the shape and/or the characteristic of at least one pressure pulse wave caused by a cardiac contraction as a function of time and is stored as a time series for the particular patient. In particularly preferred embodiments, the characteristic variable is represented as a trend and serves the physician as a basis for long-term monitoring of the arterial vascular stiffness.
