Implication

Good between-observer repeatability supports PWV-finger and PWV-brain for research; leaves open clinical utility given poorer between-session repeatability.

Population

11 volunteers

Intervention

Measurement of peripheral pulse wave velocity (PWV) using three techniques: transcranial Doppler (PWV-brain), ear clip transducer (PWV-ear), and Finapres transducer on the left middle finger (PWV-finger)

Outcome

Repeatability coefficient percentages (RC%) for between-observer and between-session measurementssurrogate

Non-invasive measurement of intracerebral pulse wave velocity using transcranial Doppler shows satisfactory between-observer repeatability, but between-session repeatability is less reliable.
