Abstract

For patients with chronic heart failure, the coenzyme Q10 can improve the symptom. This study is to using a pulse wave analysis system to evaluate the cardiac hemodynamics of patients with coenzyme Q10 treatment. A total of 10 people participated in the study. We found that treatment for 3 months with coenzyme Q10 resulted in a significant decrease in Systolic blood pressure at rest, and a significant increase in SI and CI. All these parameters remained unchanged in the placebo group.
