Heart and Blood Pressure Study: The Effect of Aortic Impedance on Myocardial Relaxation

NCT00204984 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 17

Last updated 2019-02-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Does dilation of blood vessels (vasodilation), which decreases aortic stiffness, have a greater effect on heart myocardium relaxation (diastole) than vasodilation which affects mean pressure equally without improving aortic stiffness?
