DIFFERENCES IN CENTRAL SYSTOLIC, DIASTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE AND PULSE WAVE VELOCITY BETWEEN SEVERE HYPERTENSIVE PATIENTS (HT) AFTER SIX MONTHS OF CONTROLLED HYPERTENSION

Objective:Arterial pulse wave velocity (PWV) is a well-established indirect measure of arterial wall stiffness and an independent predictor of cardiovascular events. The objective of the present project was to analyse the PWV values and central pressure values in elder patients that have resistant H
