SORAYA-M. SAMII is an academic who published a paper in 2017 entitled Altered Baroreflex-Mediated Cardiovascular Responses to Acute Hypotension in Heart Failure Patients. SORAYA-M. SAMII published this work as part of a team: Drew, Rachel C.. Here is a description of this work: Pat,,ents with heart failure (HF) exhibit baroreflex dysfunction, which is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Orthostatic hypotension, a decrease in blood pressure (BP) upon standing, is a condition that often occurs in HF, and may be linked with altered baroreflex responsiveness in this population. However, data on baroreflex-mediated cardiovascular responses to acute hypotension in HF patients are limited. Therefore, 8 HF patients (7 men, mean±SEM 65±3y, ejection fraction 30. 5±3. 1%) and 7 healthy control (CON) adults (6 men, 65±2y) underwent 7. 5 minutes of unilateral lower-limb ischemia via inflation of a thigh cuff on one leg to non-pharmacologically induce acute hypotension upon cuff deflation. Beat-to-beat systolic BP, diastolic BP, and mean arterial BP (MAP, photoplethysmographic finger cuff) and heart rate (HR, elec.
