Key result
Automated brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) was closely correlated with reference carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity (r = 0.70, P < 0.01) for assessing arterial stiffness.

Cheng et al. (2020) conducted an editorial in Arterial stiffness. Automated brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) vs. Carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) was evaluated on Agreement between baPWV and cfPWV (r = 0.70, p=<.01). Automated brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) was closely correlated with reference carotid-to-femoral pulse wave velocity (r = 0.70, P < 0.01) for assessing arterial stiffness.
