Features of arterial hypertension in elderly patients with bronchial asthma

To evaluate clinical and functional features of combined arterial hypertension (AH) and bronchial asthma (BA) 90 elderly patients (including 60 patients with BA) were examined using 24-hour blood pressure monitoring, spirography, echocardiography. The results obtained demonstrate expressed pathological changes of blood pressure, external respiration function, geometric and functional exponents of heart activity in elderly patients with BA.
