2016, International Journal of CardiologyThe role of aortic compliance in determination of coarctation severity: Lumped parameter modeling, in vitro study and clinical evaluation
2015, Journal of BiomechanicsCitation Excerpt :Current AHA guidelines suggest a peak-to-peak systolic trans-coarctation pressure gradient (PKdP)>20 mmHg as a measure of pressure overload and an indication for interventional/surgical repair (Brili et al., 1998; Vogt et al., 2005). Although many studies (Gardiner et al., 1994; Xu et al., 1997; Brili et al., 1998; Vogt et al., 2005) reported that patients with COA have a localized enhancement of pressure-wave reflections not only towards the ascending aorta but also towards the lower body, and reduced compliances, in the proximal and distal aorta, little is known about the impact of variations in the arterial compliance on trans-coarctation pressure gradient (Xu et al., 1997). To the best of our knowledge a comprehensive study investigating the effects of variations of proximal COA and systemic compliances on the PKdP, and consequently on the evaluation of COA severity has never been done in the past.
Asymmetric dimethylarginine and vascular indices of atherosclerosis in patients after coarctation of aorta repair
2012, International Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :However, recently published data suggests early functional and structural atherosclerotic changes even in normotensive patients after CoA repair [8–11]. In the CoA repaired population impaired endothelium-dependent arterial relaxation as well as increased arterial stiffness and thickening of the intima-media complex were found [8–11]. The reason for the vascular abnormalities are probably the pathological changes in the precoartaction arteries.
