Non-hemodynamic factors associated to the risk of developing hypertensive cardiopathy

Journal Title: Journal of Cardiology and Cardiovascular Medicine - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 1

Abstract

Introduction: Hypertensive cardiopathy is the target organ lesion caused by arterial hypertension (HTN) that exhibits the highest morbidity and mortality rates. Although the importance of hemodynamic overload exerted by HTN on the onset of cardiopathy is well established, several non-hemodynamic factors may contribute significantly to its development.
