Why the study?
Does local cold exposure affect digital arterial compliance and pulse volume in volunteers?
Does local cold exposure affect digital arterial compliance and pulse volume in volunteers?
Calibrated photoplethysmography combined with continuous finger blood pressure monitoring can quantitatively estimate dynamic compliance of finger arteries, which significantly decreases during cold exposure.

May confound digital vascular measurements without temperature control; hypothesis-generating for cold effects on compliance in volunteers.
