Why the study?
Does pulse arrival time (PAT) accurately track diastolic pressure compared to pulse transit time (PTT) in a canine model?
Does pulse arrival time (PAT) accurately track diastolic pressure compared to pulse transit time (PTT) in a canine model?
Pulse transit time is superior to pulse arrival time for tracking diastolic pressure in a canine model.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
PTT may outperform PAT for diastolic pressure tracking in canines; leaves open human validation before clinical use.
