The thesis is concerned with the analysis of measuring pulse wave velocity in human body with the aid of whole-body multichannel bioimpedance which was developed at ISI AS CR, v.v.i.. The evaluation of pulse wave velocity can provide us with important information about the state of vessel compliance which is one of the basic parameters informing on their physiological state. The examination of the state of vascular system is a very important part of early diagnostics because its pathological states are the main contributor to the rise of cardiovascular diseases and disease mortality. The thesis is concerned with the theoretical analysis together with the available methods of valuation of the state of vascular system that use measuring of pulse wave velocity. The main part of the thesis deals with the analysis of the whole-body multichannel bioimpedance measurement. The proposed and programmed protocol that summarizes and visualizes all obtained information is a part of this thesis. This is currently used as an output of the experimental measurement by this method. Data file for statistical processing contains the values of the pulse wave velocity of 35 healthy volunteers and subsequently the properties of pulse wave are assessed at various excitations.
