The effect of 7-day "dry" immersion on the hemocoagulation system of male test subjects aged 45-55, was examined. The experiments were carried out on 15 volunteers, 11 of whom had boundary arterial hypertension (BAH) (according to the WHO classification) and 4 were healthy controls. The data obtained (thromboelastograms and coagulograms) show that "dry" immersion induces hypercoagulopathic changes in the hemocoagulation system. The BAH patients have displayed a more marked fibrinolysis depression, indicating a decline of their reserve-adaptive capabilities.
