PulseWave Analysis (Accelerated Plethysmography)

Using a finger clip, the blood's pulsewave is followed from the time it leaves the heart and travels through the blood vessels down to the finger. The pulsewave is a snapshot into the cardiovascular system and evaluates arterial elasticity (arterial stiffness), which is related to atherosclerosis. Arterial stiffness is a major cardiovascular risk factor.

There is strong scientific evidence supporting the use of plethysmography as a diagnostic and prognostic tool for cardiovascular disease and peripheral vascular disease (including primary and secondary Raynaud's phenomenon).

Digital Pulsewave Analysis will give you early warning signs of heart disease.

The test analyzes:

• Overall elasticity of large, small and peripheral arteries (arterial stiffness)
• The functional age of blood vessels
• Hydration levels
• Pulse rate
• Left ventricular ejection

The test will also help assess your nutraceutical and pharmaceutical needs as well as show the effectiveness of lifestyle changes and/or recommended treatments.
