This study aimed to investigate the potential of arterial pulse waveform (APW) analysis as a tool for predicting arterial age of subjects through the use of a pressure independent index (PII) based on the shape of APW. 3 different PIIs were studied and the results showed that PII_1= t_1/t_2 produc...
