Abstract:
Aim To explore the hemodynamic change of elderly isolated hypertension(EISH). Methods Color doppler ultrasonography were applied to examine thirty EISH patients and twenty eight elderly healthy subjects. The left ventricular systolic function as well as hemodynamic parameters were measured. Results The indices of left ventricular systolic function in EISH group such as SV,CO,EF and CI were obviously higher than those of control group(P<0.05),Linear relevant analysis show that pulse pressure was remarkable related to SV,CO,EF and CI in EISH group,with r value 0.43,0.56,0.46,0.45 respectively.Conclusion EISH patients apparently had ventricular systolic dysfunction and hemodynamic abnormality. Pulse pressure may be associated with development of sysytolic dysfunction.
