Brief Summary: Does dilation of blood vessels vasodilation which decreases aortic stiffness have a greater effect on heart myocardium relaxation diastole than vasodilation which affects mean pressure equally without improving aortic stiffness
Detailed Description: 60 subjects 30 with hypertension and 30 without will attend two visits to the GCRC At each visit pulsatile hemodynamics by using tonometry-a non-invasive means to obtain arterial pressure tracings and Doppler tissue imaging relaxation velocity a measurement of myocardial relaxation obtained by echocardiography data will be collected before and after administration of vasodilator medication At the first visit each patient will receive an oral dose of the vasodilator hydralazine does not effect aortic stiffness and at the second visit each patient will receive intravenous nesiritide does effect aortic stiffness The relationship between timing of the reflected pulse wave and myocardial relaxation velocity will be studied at baseline and following administration of each vasodilator to determine if changing aortic stiffness has an impact on myocardial relaxation
