Abstract

Microvascular response to ischemia and subsequent reperfusion is diminished in older adults compared with the young. Furthermore, there appears to be a dissociation between the microvascular response to ischemia and brachial hyperemic WSR in older adults, which may further disturb the BAFMD process in this cohort. A reduced BAFMD in older adults may be a result of multiple alterations occurring both at macro- and microcirculation.
