ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry Preston Broderick, MA University of Pennsylvania

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry  Non-invasive device used to obtain Pulse Wave Analysis (PWA), Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV)  To be performed immediately after the MRI  ~30 minute procedure  Participant must be laying down  Do not include PHI in the database

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry Adding a subject to the database

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry  Information that must be entered  ID  First Initial  Last Initial  Year of Birth  Sex

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry  Pulse Wave Analysis  Obtain BP measurements using an Omron HEM-907 device  Use that data to calculate the mean arterial pressure with the following equation: MAP = DBP (SBP-DBP)  Type the sbp in the notes section as “SBP: x”  Indicate which side the radial tonometry is being performed in the notes section  Enter data into PWA subject screen as follows

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry Pulse Wave Analysis (Radial)

ACRIN CV Committee  Data acquisition  Relax your arms and hands  Maintain a constant pressure  Acquire 12 seconds of data  Complete acquisition by pressing the space bar  Goal is to achieve good consistency and height in the waveforms  Shoot for as high an operating index as possible Ideal target: >90 for radial Ideal target: >80 for carotid Arterial Tonometry

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry 12 Seconds of consistent data acquisition

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry Favorable Result: 94 Operator Index

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry Unfavorable Result: 0 Operator Index

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry Pulse Wave Analysis (Carotid)

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry 12 Seconds of consistent data acquisition

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry Favorable Result: 95 Operator Index

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry Unfavorable Result: 5 Operator Index

ACRIN CV Committee Arterial Tonometry  Pulse Wave Velocity  Measure distance (mm) between carotid artery and sternal notch  Measure distance (mm) between femoral artery and sternal notch  Shoot for lowest standard deviation possible Ideal target <10% SD  Place ECG electrodes on subject prior to acquisition
