Pulsatile hemodynamics and cardiovascular risk factors in very old patients: background, sex aspects and implications.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Blood pressure (BP) measurement in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients is problematic and automated monitors are regarded as inaccurate. The optimal procedure for validating BP monitors in AF is questionable. This study evaluated the accuracy of a novel professional oscillometric upper-arm cuff device (Microli...
