Description
Summary:A plenty of trials confirm the importance of aortic wall stiffness evaluation during estimation of the cardiovascular risk and the need for novel drugs influencing this parameter. Most of hypotensive medications modify arterial wall siffness by one or another way. So the usage of drug combination might be more effective. Insufficient impact of betaadrenoblockers on central artrial pressure is linked to peripheral vasoconstriction. The drugs within this class having vasodilatory properties significantly reduce central aortic pressure.
