Diastolic function assessment in hypertensive patients

Abstract

Systemic hypertension is linked with an increase in the risk of cardiovascular insults because to its negative effects on a variety of systems, particularly the cardiovascular system. There will be growing myocardial fibrosis before cardiac functional disturbances in a hypertensive persons become obvious. Diastolic impairment is a prominent component of this illness, and Despite the fact that its significance is becoming more widely recognized, it is still underappreciated due to its challenging diagnosis and lack of effective therapies. The study's goal is to assess diastolic function in people with managed hypertension. This study enlisted the participation of 80 young people. The patients were divided into two groups: Control group (I), n=40 (male: 24) and hypertensive group (II), n=40 (male: 24). When compared to normotensive people, we found that E/e (P value: 0.0001) and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (P value: 0.0001) remain considerably greater. There is no difference in the ejection time of the left ventricular outflow tract between the research groups (P value: 0.6). We concluded that in managed hypertension individuals, E/e and PCWP are high, indicating impaired diastolic function
