Introduction • The occurrence of major cardiovascular events is usually the result of long term exposure to hypertension and other cardiovascular risk factors. • This often preceded by the development of asymptomatic functional and structural abnormalities which is called subclinical organ damage phase. (Mancia et al, 2007). Introduction • Subclinical organ damage phase is potentially reversible and in turn represent a strong independent predictor of unfavorable outcome. • These damages include; - Electrocardiographic or echocardiographic LVH. - Carotid wall thickening. i - Ankle brachial blood pressure index
Aim of work • To detect the correlation between AASI as a measure of arterial stiffness with subclinical target organ damage. Patients and Methods Study design 70 Subjects Group I (n= 50) Group II (n=20)
