Post-carotid Endarterectomy Hypertension. Part 2: Association with Peri-operative Clinical, Anaesthetic, and Transcranial Doppler Derived Parameters

The first paper in this series observed that pre-operative baroreceptor dysfunction and poorly controlled hypertension were independently predictive for identifying patients who went on to require treatment for post-endarterectomy hypertension (PEH). The second paper examines the influence of intra-operative patient, transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound, and anaesthetic variables on the incidence of PEH.
