When blood pressure is taken it is almost certainly done in the conventional way via the arm - the brachial blood pressure. Cardiologists have known for sometime that the preferred way of taking blood pressure is as it leaves the heart. This is known as Central Aortic Systolic Pressure (CASP). Up until very recently, this has only been available invasively. This carries risk, takes time and is very costly. However it's importance and significance means it is described as the 'gold standard' when measuring blood pressure and is often only reserved for people in a clinical situation.
We now have the technology to measure this a person's CASP non invasively and safely in a matter of minutes.
So what? This is important as a person's CASP is related closely to the stiffness in their arteries and stiff arteries is an early warning indicator of poor cardiovascular health and problems to come.
Our comprehensive report tells someone how old a person is arterially. For example I am a 50 year old man. What is important to me should be the age of my cardiovascular system. By knowing this I can, if I choose to, do something about it. It is for good reason that cardiologists often refer to this business as the anti-aging business.
We do not attempt to diagnose but are able to suggest a person goes to see their doctor. We are also able to refer a patient privately to a cardiologist. We position ourselves a first line triage service aimed at education and in the business of preventative medicine.
