P7 Assessing Vascular Age from Peripheral Pulse Waves: a Study of Existing Indices, and Directions for Future Research

Purpose: Vascular age may be a better marker of cardiovascular risk than age. It has been proposed that vascular age could be assessed easily and inexpensively from the photoplethysmogram (PPG) pulse wave, which is measured by pulse oximeters and fitness bands.
