Wave reflection augments central systolic and pulse pressures during facial cooling
Heart And Circulatory Physiology, 06/12/08
Edwards DG et al. - Change in mean arterial pressure but not PWV predicted the change in AI, suggesting that facial cooling may increase AI independent of aortic PWV. Facial cooling and the resulting peripheral vasoconstriction are associated with an increase in wave reflection and augmentation of central systolic pressure, potentially explaining ischemia and cardiovascular events in the cold.
