HIV patients using HAART, in these patients we register pereferal arterial stiffness by measuring pulse wave velocity.
Conditions
Interventions
Periferal arterial pulsewave velocity registration, non invasive.
Additional bloodanalyses, taken from patient at time of routine perferal blood draw pre visit outpatient clinic.

Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Cardiac arythmia.
Design outcomes

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Increase in pulse wave velocity. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Increased velocity (thus increased stiffness) related to glucose, lipidspectrum and inflammation parameters? | — |
