[Effect of electromagnetic irradiation of the millimetric range on hemodynamics in patients with arterial hypertension].

The study of efficacy of combined therapy including exposure to millimetric electromagnetic radiation (MER) in hypertensive patients has found a corrective hemodynamic effect of such treatment which appeared more potent than pharmacotherapy alone or combinations with sinusoidal modulated currents and placebo electromagnetic radiation. In hypokinetic and eukinetic types of hemodynamics MER raises cardiac output, lowers peripheral vascular resistance; in the hyperkinetic type there was a fall in the stroke and cardiac indices, compensatory rise of vascular resistance. The above changes in the course of treatment result in decline of both systolic and diastolic pressure and conversion of "extreme" types of hemodynamics in eukinetic in 11% patients. In hypertensive patients with eukinetic and hyperkinetic type of hemodynamics the best hemodynamic efficacy was achieved in combined therapy with 5.6 mm radiation.
