Abstract

Objective: Coronary slow flow (CSF) is characterized by delayed opacification of coronary arteries in the absence epicardial occlusive disease. P wave duration and dispersion have been reported to be longer in patients with CSF Nebivolol, besides its selective beta-blocking activity, causes an endothelium dependent vasodilatation through nitric oxide release. In this study, we searched for the association between left ventricular diastolic functions and atrial conduction dispersion, the effects of nebivolol on P wave duration and dispersion in patients with CSF
