Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the characteristics of brachial ankle pulse wave velocity(baPWV)in patients with essential hypertension,and that in patients with essential hypertension associated with coronary artery disease.Methods:The baPWV of 28 patients with essential hypertension was measured,the baPWV of 26 patients with essential hypertension associated with coronary artery disease confirmed by coronary angiography was also measured,and the baPWV of 25 control group's patients was measured.Results:baPWV was significantly higher in patients with essential hypertension than that in contral group,and baPWV is much higher in patients with essential hypertension associated with coronary artery disease than that in patients with essential hypertension.Conclusions:The results suggest that vascular lesion is exsist in patients with essential hypertension,and the vascular stiffness in patients with essential htpertension associated with coronary artery disease is increased than that in patients with essential hypertension.
