Effect of ACE-Inhibition on Microvascular Function in Women With Assessed Microvascular Dysfunction

Summary

The aim of this study is to explore effects of long term treatment with ACE-inhibitor on the small vessel function assessed by coronary flow reserve (CFR) by transthoracic echocardiography and flow mediated dilation in normotensive patients with small vessel disease (CFR\<2.2) and Angina Pectoris but no obstructive coronary artery disease.
