a weekly exchange of insights and ideas in cardiovascular medicine
Baroreceptor Stimulation – Current Role and
Future Prospective in Cardiovascular Diseases
Prof. Rolf Wachter
Clinic for Cardiology and Pneumology
University Medicine Göttingen, Germany
Nearly 50 years ago, Eugene Braunwald and his wife Nina Starr described baroreceptor
stimulation as a therapy for severe angina in the New England Journal of Medicine. Due to
new treatment modalities (e. g. coronary stenting, bypass surgery), this therapy was long
time forgotten, but has evolved in recent years for treatment of hypertension and, more
recently, heart failure. Prof. Wachter will give an overview on the recent evidence from
randomised controlled trials, will share own research data and discuss potential future
therapeutic targets in cardiovascular diseases.
