Impact of asymptomatic hypertension on left and right ventricular functions by echocardiography

Many authors[7-9] had worked on similar kind of subject of hypertension and heart functions in controls and asymptomatic hypertensive participants and concluded that LV systolic functions were normal, but the stroke volume (SV), ejection fraction (EjF), cardiac output (CO), and cardiac index increased in hypertensives. Sampling Methods SV = (LV diastolic diameter [LViDd])3-(LV systolic diameter [LViDs] )3 (ProQuest: ... denotes formula omitted.) Fractional fiber shortening = (LVEDD - LVESD)/LVEDD FFS% = (EDD-ESD)/EDD x 100 CO = SV x Heart rate *LVID is LV internal diameter *d is Diastole ·s is Systole *EDD is End-diastolic diameter *ESD is End-systolic diameter. Inclusion Criteria Male hypertensive participants aged 20-60 years and above with normal heart rate and with systolic blood pressure >120 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure >80 mmHg. Exclusion Criteria Participants with symptoms such as headache, blurring of vision, giddiness, epistaxis, discomfort in chest, chest pain, shortness of breath, any other urinary problems, or diabetes were excluded from the study.
