No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study aims to evaluate the reliability of measurements of arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity (PWV), pulse wave contour analysis (PWA), central augmentation index (AIx) and pulse pressure (PP)) in atrial fibrillation (AF). For this purpose 30 AF patients scheduled for electrical cardioversion will be included. PWV and PWA measurements will be carried out before and after cardioversion.
