STRUCTURAL CHANGES OF MYOCARDIUM OF LEFT VENTRICLE AND PULSE BLOOD PRESSURE (ACCORDING TO 24-HOUR MONITORING) IN PATIENTS WITH HYPERTENSIVE DISEASE

66 male patients (mean age 49,6±3,7 years) with hypertensive disease stages II, 2th and 3th degrees of arterial hypertension were inspected. 24-hour monitoring of blood pressure (BP) and ultrasonic research of heart for the exposure of criteria of hypertrophy was studied. According to the 24-hour monitoring, the of hypertrophy of left ventricle (LVH) and a complex of changes patients were divided into 2 groups: 1) those (n=18) having pulse blood pressure (PBP24)>53 mm Hg and 2) those (n=48) having PBP24<53 mm Hg. Group 1 patients were found to have significantly higher index of mass of left ventricle, LV WRTI, and incidence of LVH and a complex of changes in the BP profile as higher values of 24-hour systolic, diastolic and mean BP, PBP. The correlation analysis revealed a highly significant contribution of PBP24 to the development of LVH.
