Abstract
Aim. To study the relationship of subjective and objective signs of chronic venous diseases (CVD) with the state of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) in men with arterial hypertension (AH).
Material and methods. The object of the study were 74 men with AH at the age of 30-50 years with SBP level 148 (144-155) mm Hg. and DBP 101 (92-108) mm Hg. Two groups of 20 people were selected with the extreme parameters of vegetative index (Kerdo index).
Results. The most common complaints in patients with severe parasympathicotonia were pain in the legs and fatigue when walking, cramps in the calf muscles, oedema and sural trophic disorders. An objective examination of patients with severe vagotonia revealed a more frequent occurrence of the leading symptom of CVD — oedema.
Conclusion. AH with severe parasympathicotonia in men 30-50 years old is characterized by an increase in the frequency of subjective and objective signs of CVD, which indicates the role of ANS in the development of CVD in AH.
