Arterial compliance abnormalities in isolated systolic hypertension.
Arterial compliance measurements using intraarterial pulse contour analysis and a modified Windkessel model were carried out in 19 patients with isolated systolic hypertension (> or = 160/< or = 90 mm Hg) and compared to measurements in 29 patients with essential hypertension (diastolic blood pressure [BP] > or = 95 mm Hg) and 47 normotensive control subjects. Arterial capacitive compliance was...
متن کاملAge-related abnormalities in arterial compliance identified by pressure pulse contour analysis: aging and arterial compliance.
The objective of this study was to evaluate age-related changes in pulsatile arterial function. Aging alters arterial pulsatile function and produces consistent changes in the pressure pulse contour. A reduced systemic arterial compliance that can be derived from analysis of the pulse contour is regarded as the best clinical index of impaired pulsatile arterial function and may mark the presenc...
متن کاملArterial and venous compliance in sustained essential hypertension.
Arterial and venous compliances are decreased in men with sustained essential hypertension. The reduced arterial compliance acts to maintain systolic pressure and end-systolic stress, thus contributing to the development of cardiac hypertrophy. Since cardiac output remains within the normal range in the hypertrophied hypertensive heart, elevated left ventricular pressures, and therefore increas...
متن کاملPatient compliance in the treatment of arterial hypertension.
Introduction: Arterial hypertension (HT) is a major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular risk factor and a condition which is very prevalent throughout the world involving 50% of those over 60 years of age. Despite the fact that there are constantly improving treatments available only one third of patients who are treated have a normalisation of blood pressure (BP). This is a worrying finding sin...
متن کاملGrowth in utero, adult blood pressure, and arterial compliance.
OBJECTIVES To examine the relation between disproportionate fetal growth and adult blood pressure and to investigate whether arterial compliance in adult life is related to early development. DESIGN A follow up study of a group of men and women whose birth weights and other measurements of body size had been recorded at birth. SETTING Home and outpatient study. SUBJECTS 337 men and women ...
