Abstract (en)

The general point of this study is an assessment of the carotid artery pulse wave characteristics and the relationships between its parameters, heart rate and blood pressure. In this experiment were recording changes in pulsation of the carotid artery by the local electroimpedance method for 5 min. Amplitudes of early (ESP) and late systolic peak (LSP) were separated in each pulse wave. We investigated 558 patients with IHD and 77 healthy subjects. The carotid artery pulse waveform in the HS and the IHD was distinctly different. In the healthy subjects, the amplitude of ESP was higher than LSP, and in the IHD patients LSP was higher than ESP. This situation is usually defined as an increase in vasomotor tonus. After analysis of the distribution of the parameters according to the heart rate, a general tendency was seen: when the heart rate was higher, the amplitude of the reflected wave was lower. An inverted relation exists between distolic pressure and variability of carotid artery amplitudes. [...].
