无创性评估高血压患者主动脉弹性研究进展

Research Progress on Noninvasive Assessment of Aortic Elasticity in Patients with Hypertension

高血压是我国常见慢性病之一,其发病率呈逐年上升趋势,目前已有研究发现高血压患者其主动脉弹性会发生改变,从而引起病情加重或并发症。因此若能在早期发现高血压患者主动脉弹性的改变,可对患者采取针对性的治疗,改善患者预后。本篇文章将从主动脉弹性变化的病理生理及影响因素、高血压与主动脉弹性的相关性和临床上主流的无创性评估血管弹性方法及其量化指标进行综述。

Hypertension is one of the common chronic diseases in China,and its incidence is increasing year by year.At present,studies have found that the aortic elasticity of patients with hypertension will change,can cause disease aggravation or complications.Therefore,if the changes of aortic elasticity in patients with hypertension can be detected at an early stage,targeted treatment can be taken to improve the prognosis of patients.This article will review the pathophysiology of aortic elasticity and its influencing factors,the correlation between aortic elasticity and hypertension,the mainstream noninvasive methods for evaluating vascular elasticity and its quantitative indicators.
