In this paper we investigate a possibility of using virtual instrumentation in the development of two physiological parameters monitoring system, in order to assess a cardiovascular parameter, the Pulse Wave Velocity (PWV). We choose to monitor this parameter due to major incidence and impact of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). %U http://www.ijates.org/index.php/ijates/article/view/23
