P5.06 INCREASED ARTERIAL STIFFNESS AND SYSTOLIC BLOOD PRESSURE FOLLOWING SUBCLAVIAN FLAP REPAIR FOR AORTIC COARCTATION IN INFANCY
Objectives: To compare the effect of Subclavian Flap Repair (SFR) versus end-to-end anastomosis (EEA) on arterial stiffness and systolic blood pressure in young children with aortic coarctation. Methods: Pulse wave velocity (PWV) was measured using a pulse volume recording technique (Vicorder, Skid...
