P77 NEAR INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY (NIRS) CAN DETECT DIFFERENCES IN MICROVASCULAR REACTIVE HYPERAEMIA IN THE PRESENCE OF HYPERTENSION
Background: Hypertension has adverse effects on microvascular function but there are limited methods that permit non-invasive assessment of the microcirculation in man in vivo. We used Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) to assess microvascular reactive hyperaemia in skeletal muscle following a short...
