Abstract

Background. Organoprotective features should be taken into account when antihypertensive therapy is administered. The infl uence of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) on intravascular blood fl ow is unknown. Design and methods. A total of 40 patients with essential hypertension stage I–II (mean age 48,1 ± 14,8 years) were included. All of them got fosinopril therapy for 27 weeks. Examination included: assessment of the common carotid artery diameter, intima-media complex thickness, distensibility coeffi cient, stiffness index, peak systolic velocity of the wall and the central layer of the blood fl ow in the common carotid artery and their relationship — the index of wall blood fl ow slowdown (IWBFS). Results. In addition to a distinct antihypertensive effect, fosinopril induces improvement of elastic properties of the vascular wall, reduces intima-media thickness and increases IWBFS. Conclusion. Fosinopril leads to the increase of IWBFS that may indicate the reduction of turbulent fl ow probability in the common carotid arteries and decreased risk of atherosclerosis.
