The relationship between modified pulse wave transit time and cardiovascular changes in isoflurane anesthetized dogs.
To clarify the relationship between blood pressure and pulse wave transit time at the peripheral artery from the R wave of the electrocardiogram (m-PWTT), the effects of cardiovascular interventions on this relationship was evaluated. ⋯ Change in m-PWTT is a good parameter to predict blood pressure changes, although the absolute blood pressure value cannot be obtained.
