[The Application of Noninvasive Central Blood Pressure Detection in Blood Pressure Management and Vessel Function Assessment of Hypertension].

OBJECTIVES

To explore the significance of noninvasive central blood pressure detection in blood pressure management and vessel function assessment of hypertension.

METHODS

A total of 348 subjects were recruited in the study and A-pulse CASP software were derived to measure the parameters of CASP and vessel function. The recruited subjects were divided into different groups for analysis according to age and disease.

RESULTS

(1) CASP in hypertension group were both higher than those in normal group, while RAI and PRT lower. (2) Hypertensive patients of which brachial blood pressure were controlled have lower CASP and RAI than those above the level. (3) Hypertensive patients whose brachial blood pressure were controlled have significantly higher CASP than normal subjects.

CONCLUSIONS

Central blood pressure is more reflective of actural blood pressure and vessel function. Enhanced control of CASP in hypertensive patients contributes to improving vessel compliance.
