NCT02026154

Brief Summary

The study objective is to clarify the grounds of heart exertional dyspnoea stenocardia in patients with well-controlled stage I or II hypertension according to European Society of Hypertension, without changes in epicardial coronary arteries in CT coronary angiography and normal resting echocardiography result, and to assess of potential early markers of heart hypertrophy and failure in patients with hypertension.
