Subclinical target organ damage (TOD) is an important long‐term complication of hypertension and is associated with cardiovascular events and death. Aortic‐flow propagation velocity (APV) is one of the arterial stiffness parameters. The aim of this study was to investigate the predictive value of APV on left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and proteinuria.
