[General hemodynamic features in the cerebral circulatory disorders of patients with atherosclerosis and atherosclerosis combined with arterial hypertension accompanied by heart rhythm disorders].

Parameters of the general and cerebral hemodynamics were examined in 45 patients with cerebral circulation disturbances developed in the presence of atherosclerosis (30 patients) and atherosclerosis plus arterial hypertension with cardiac arrhythmias (15 patients) and without the latter (72 patients). The examinations were carried out with the use of the Evans blue dilution method (T-1824) and rheoencephalography. Shifts in the general and the cerebral hemodynamics were revealed in the patients with and without cardiac arrhythmias, these shifts being more pronounced in patients with atherosclerosis complicated with the heart ischemic disease and cardiac arrhythmia. In the course of complex treatment which included cardiotonics and beta-adrenoblocking agents the parameters of the general hemodynamics got better along with the clinical improvement.
