P2.11 EXERCISE REVEALS DIFFERENTIAL COUPLING BETWEEN AORTIC HAEMODYNAMICS AND LEFT VENTRICULAR TWIST MECHANICS

Background: Hypertensive heart disease is characterised by raised left ventricular (LV) mass, a consequence of load-altered ventricular-arterial coupling. Prior to gains in LV mass, early functional changes in ventricular-arterial coupling must occur, however, these are difficult to detect from conv...
