The association between aortic regurgitation and increased arterial wave reflection

Background: Chronic Aortic Regurgitation (AR) increases left ventricular preload and afterload, which may enhance arterial wave reflection. The effects of AR on noninvasive measures of arterial wave reflection and central aortic pressure are unknown. Methods: To determine the relation between AR an...
