| Abstract | Measurement of structural and functional properties of the arterial tree produce important clinical indexes for the assessment of cardiovascular risk, vascular adaptation, and therapeutic efficacy. An optical system for non-contact measurement of skin surface vibrations with the distension in the carotid artery, that allows the determination the pulse wave velocity (PWV) and pulse waveform analysis (PWA), is promising nowadays. A comparison between optical system and an invasive intra-arterial catheter were performed. The waveforms acquired by both systems show a strong correlation (mean value of 0.95805), the small differences emphasize the effect of the energy dissipation during the heart cycle that occurs due to the viscous properties of the arterial wall.A comparative test between the optical system and a gold-standard method in PWV assessment (Complior®) was carried out. Lower values were expected for PWV in the carotid site than the PWV in a carotid-femoral measurement and the results proved that there are systematic lower values but with strong correlation (r = 0.819, p<0.001).Trial tests were developed in a large group of healthy subjects for study the correlations between the population characteristics and their hemodynamic parameters measured by the optical system. The results confirmed an increase of PWV with age; the negative correlation between the Augmentation Index and the heart rate and lower values for the dP/dtmax.in female subjects.The optical system proved to be able to measure the arterial pulse waveform in a reliable way and demonstrated a good consistency in the determination of clinical parameters using dedicated algorithms. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
