There are 4 algorithms available for pulse wave velocity. What is the algorithm for, and which one should I use?
These algorithms are used to determine the point at which diastole ends and systole begins. A technical sheet with further information on these algorithms can be found here. If you do not have a preference for the algorithm to be used, we recommend using “3. Intersecting Tangents” as this is the algorithm the system uses for pulse wave analysis.
