24-hour BP monitoring may enable concurrent stiffness assessment; leaves open standardization of PWV reference values by age and sex.
Arterial wall stiffness is an early marker of cardiovascular diseases. The gold standard for assessment of the stiffness of large vessels is presently pulse wave velocity (PWV). Work is in progress on the study of the reference values of PWV in people of different genders and ages. 24-hour blood pressure (BP) monitoring is not only a procedure that can estimate diurnal BP variability, but also monitor the indicators of vascular wall stiffness in a number of cases over a 24-hour period. The given review highlights the pathophysiology of arterial stiffness, methods for its assessment, and the aspects of use in therapeutic practice.

Корнева et al. (2016) conducted a review in Arterial stiffness and cardiovascular disease risk. 24-hour blood pressure monitoring was evaluated. 24-hour blood pressure monitoring is a valuable procedure that estimates diurnal blood pressure variability and monitors indicators of vascular wall stiffness for cardiovascular risk assessment.
