Haemodynamic parameters in hypertensive patients following acute stroke and early outcome
Cardiac baroreceptor sensitivity (BRS) plays an important part in the short-term blood pressure control. It is recognised that impaired cardiac BRS, measured 72-hours post-ictus, predicts poor death/dependency in long-term. There is a suggestion that increased stiffness affecting baroreceptors in ao...
