Pulse Wave Database (PWDB): Baseline subjects aged 25 to 75

<p><strong>The Pulse Wave Database</strong></p> <p>The <a href="https://peterhcharlton.github.io/pwdb">Pulse Wave Database (PWDB)</a> is a database of simulated arterial pulse waves designed to be representative of a sample of pulse waves measured from healthy adults. It contains pulse waves for 4,374 virtual subjects, aged from 25-75 years old (in 10 year increments). The database&nbsp;contains a baseline set of pulse waves for each of the six age groups, created using cardiovascular properties (such as heart rate and arterial stiffness) which are representative of healthy subjects at each age group. It also contains 728 further virtual subjects at each age group, in which each of the cardiovascular properties are varied within normal ranges.&nbsp;The entire database is available at DOI:&nbsp;<a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.2633174">10.5281/zenodo.2633174</a>&nbsp;.</p> <p><strong>This dataset: baseline subjects aged 25 to 75</strong></p> <p>This dataset is a subset of the PWDB. It contains the pulse waves for the six baseline subjects aged 25 to 75 (in 10 year increments). It contains the following waves:</p> <ul> <li>arterial flow velocity (U),</li> <li>luminal area (A),</li> <li>pressure (P), and</li> <li>photoplethysmogram (PPG).</li> </ul> <p>These pulse waves are provided at a range of measurement sites, including:</p> <ul> <li>aorta (ascending and descending)</li> <li>carotid artery</li> <li>brachial artery</li> <li>radial artery</li> <li>finger</li> <li>femoral artery</li> </ul> <p>The data are available in three formats: Matlab, CSV and WaveForm Database (WFDB) format.
