[Microcirculation and central hemodynamics of hypertension patients during long-term hypotensive therapy].

Microcirculation and central hemodynamics were studied in 62 patients with essential hypertension and in subjects with borderline arterial hypertension during long-term (up to 5 years) hypotensive therapy. Systematic therapy was found to be efficacious in the aspect of the improvement of the resistive component of microcirculation and blood pressure drop. Occasional treatment did not lead to significant beneficial shifts in micro- and macrocirculation.
