What does this research mean for the field?

In patients with mild hypertension, age correlates inversely with aortic and early diastolic peak flow velocities and positively with late diastolic peak flow velocity, mirroring patterns previously observed in normal subjects.

Can Doppler echocardiography detect flow abnormalities in men with mild hypertension?

Population

21 men with mild hypertension

Intervention

Doppler echocardiography (recording of aortic and mitral valve flow velocities)

Outcome

Doppler aortic and mitral valve flow velocitiessurrogate

Discussion

No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.

Implication

Doppler echocardiography detects age-related aortic and mitral flow changes in mild hypertension; extends prior M-mode and radionuclide observations to velocity assessment.
