Abstract

The paper analyses the results of a study of the clinical peculiarities of the course of essential hypertension with crises, of the changes in the functional state of the central nervous system, and of some neuro-humoral systems of the human body. In most of the patients tending to develope frequent crises distinct changes were noted in the EEG that indicate dysfunction of the hypothalamic zone and of the reticular formation of the brain stem, their clinical course being characterized by significant astheno-neurotic disorders with autonomous dysfunction and cerebral angiodistonic disturbances. For the prevention of crises it is essential to conduct a pathogenetically substantiated and highly differentiated systematic therapy, as well as special measures aimed at increasing the endurance of the central nervous system, improving the circulation and metabolic processes in the brain, decreasing tnd hypothalamic structures of the brain, and correcting the dishormonal disorders.
