The aim of this study was to assess the behavior of the diastolic left ventricular (LV) filling pattern and cardiac hypertrophy after treatment with cilazapril. Twelve patients (9 male and 3 female) with mild to moderate essential hypertension, aged 46 +/- 14.1 years, were treated with cilazapril for 1 year. They underwent Doppler echocardiography at the beginning (I), after 6 months (II), and after 1 year (III) of treatment. The following parameters were evaluated: mean arterial pressure (MAP) automatically recorded for 24 h, interventricular septal and posterior wall thickness, LV and end-diastolic diameter, LV mass index, early (E) and late (A) diastolic filling flow velocities, and the ratio E/A. A significant reduction in LV hypertrophy and an improved diastolic filling pattern of the left ventricle was shown after 6 months of therapy with cilazapril; this improvement still remained after 1 year of therapy.
