Cardiovascular engineering

speed at which the pressure pulse travels along an artery, which rises with wall stiffness.

In cardiovascular engineering, pulse wave velocity refers to speed at which the pressure pulse travels along an artery, which rises with wall stiffness. This meaning comes from Bramwell (1922) in Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Containing Papers of a Biological Character.[1]
