We studied the hemodynamic mechanism responsible for the antihypertensive effect of indapamide in eight patients with mild essential hypertension. Systemic and pulmonary hemodynamics were measured using direct techniques (right heart catheterization and thermodilution method), before and 7-10 days after oral treatment with indapamide (2.5 mg/day). Indapamide reduced mean arterial blood pressure from 120 +/- 1.6 (mean +/- SE) to 101 +/- 1.4 mm Hg (p less than 0.01), and mean pulmonary artery pressure from 21 +/- 0.59 to 17 +/- 1.05 mm Hg (p less than 0.01). Total peripheral vascular resistance (TPR) and pulmonary vascular resistance were reduced from 36 +/- 0.85 to 29 +/- 0.72 U/m2 (p less than 0.01) and from 4.3 +/- 0.17 to 3.8 +/- 0.18 U/m2 (p less than 0.01), respectively. Indapamide did not change cardiac index (CI) (3,311 +/- 61.6 vs. 3,325 +/- 72.1 ml/min/m2), heart rate (HR) (75 +/- 1.7 vs. 75 +/- 9 beats/min), mean rate of left ventricular ejection index 140 +/- 2.04 vs. 139 +/- 1.99 ml/s/m2, and stroke index (44 +/- 5.6 vs. 43 +/- 5.8 ml/m2). Mean pulmonary wedge pressure decreased from 7 +/- 0.6 to 5 +/- 0.5 mm Hg (p less than 0.05). Body weight, 24-h urinary volume, and hematocrit were unchanged after treatment. We conclude that the hemodynamic mechanism responsible for the antihypertensive action of indapamide is a reduction in TPR without changes in CI and HR.
