Hemodynamic state in patients with arterial hypertension and post-infarction cardiosclerosis

The article presents the results of a comparative study of hemodynamic state in patients with arterial hypertension (AH) depending on the presence of postinfarction cardiosclerosis (PCS). The parameters of central and peripheral hemodynamics were determined by the method of volumetric compression oscillometry (VCO). Data showed that patients with AH and PCS had pronounced hemodynamic disorders seen as an increase in pulse wave rate, an increase in blood flow linear velocity, and a decrease in vascular compliance.
