Detailed Description
The 185 women over 40 years of age hospitalized for arterial hypertension in the Department of Cardiology will be included in the study, including: the study group who demonstrated maximal oxygen consumption measured during incremental exercise indexed per kilogram - VO2max<17 ml/kg/min and a second group who presented VO2max>17 ml/min/kg.Selected prognostic factors will be analyzed, among others: demographic data of the patient, physical examination, symptoms, etiology and history of arterial hypertension, co-morbidities, results of selected laboratory tests, selected electrocardiographic and echocardiographic data, patient's cooperation with the doctor, treatment applied, parameters in the spiroergometric study, non-invasive assessment for central arterial pressure waveform analysis and body mass analysis.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Prognosis in arterial hypertension [One year after inclusion in the study]
A telephone interview will be conducted with patients. These will be questions about death, cardiovascular adverse events (myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome), occurrence of symptoms of heart failure, diabetes mellitus, atrial fibrillation, necessity performing coronary angiography or re-hospitalization.
