Hypertensive heart disease is one of the most frequent diseases in
man. It is esti mated that there are six to eight million
hypertensive patients in the Federal Re public of Germany today.
This corresponds with an incidence of 10%-15% in the whole
population. Approximately between three and four million show
organic eardiac manifestations of hypertension. Of all deaths
occurring before the age of 65,30%-40% are attributable to
hypertension, and the total morta lity from hypertension is about
20%-25%. Recent epidemiological and clini cal studies have revealed
similar figures for other countries, such as the United States and
Japan. Hypertensive hypertrophy and cardiac failure are found to be
many times more frequent than eardiae hypertrophy and failure of
any other origin. Despite the apparent clinical and social
importance of the biologieal system "blood pressu re and the
heart," data on eardiac performance, on systemic and coronary
haemodynamics and on the morphological, bioehemical and contractile
proper ti es of ventrieular heart muscle in both experimental and
clinical hypertension are rare. This is the reason and stimulus for
having organized this symposium, which is the first one coneeming
this topie."
