Abstract Background Presystolic waves are often found during Doppler evaluation of the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) in hypertensive individuals. LV stiffness and altered LV compliance are potential mechanisms for presystolic waves. Objectives This study’s objective was to examine the relationship between presystolic wave and subclinical left ventricular (LV) impairment in asymptomatic individuals with essential hypertension. Methods This observational research comprised 87 individuals with essential hypertension. All patients had two-dimensional and Doppler echocardiography performed. Based on the existence or absence […]
