<International Circulation>: In a previous paper of yours, you stated that a low blood pressure goal when cardio-renal disease is advanced can be risky. Can you elaborate on those risks and what difficulties do clinicians face in tackling those?
<International Circulation>: There was a debate at this meeting with Bryan Williams and Stefan Laurent on central blood pressure monitoring and whether it should be preferred over conventional measurement. Do you have a view on this particular debate?
《国际循环》:本次会议上Bryan Williams 和 Stefan Laurent有场关于中心血压监测及其是否优于常规测量方法的辩论。对此辩论,您有何观点?
Prof.Ruilope: It was an excellent debate. Bryan presented a perfect defense for central blood pressure starting with the fact that blood pressure moves according to the stimuli of the baroreceptors which are located supposedly where central blood pressure is. We are getting more and more data on central blood pressure and that will continue and my conclusion is that in several years with methodologies that are cheaper and easier to utilize in clinical practice, I am convinced that central blood pressure will become a measurement of blood pressure that is totally adequate for clinical practice.
Ruilope教授:这是一场很精彩的辩论。Bryan对中心血压做了很完美的辩护,阐述了压力感受器位于中心血压处,血压随压力感受器的刺激而变化的事实。我们正获得越来越多的关于中心血压的数据,以后还将继续。我认为几年后,该方法将变得更为便宜、简便,在临床实践中更易普及,我相信中心血压将会成为一种能完全满足临床需要的测量方法。
