Haemodynamic and neurohormonal effects of AT1-receptor blockers
Abstract
AT1-receptor blockers offer potential advantages in the management of heart failure, since they selectively block AT1-receptor activation, independent of the source of angiotensin II, while preserving the potentially beneficial effects of AT2-receptor activation. In placebo-controlled trials, these agents have been shown to have beneficial effects on haemodynamics and clinical status. Comparative studies, including the RESOLVD Pilot Study with …
