More About: Digital Pulse Analyzer ("DPA")
The DPA accurately measures the elasticity of small and large arteries and provides health care practitioners with critical information regarding arterial aging. This FDA-cleared and Health Canada approved device is inexpensive, non-invasive, and can provide results in minutes. Accumulating evidence suggests that abnormalities in the pulsatile characteristics of arteries occur early in the disease process associated with increased cardiovascular risk, and can be favorably modified by therapeutic interventions.
