Ventricular-vascular coupling and central arterial pulse pressure

Central pulse pressure (cPP), a product of ventricular-arterial interaction, is an important determinant of cardiovascular outcomes in hypertension. The aim of this thesis is to advance the understanding of pulsatile haemodynamics and to explore mechanisms that may selectively reduce cPP. The conven...
