title: [Results of 2-year nondrug treatment of patients with a mild form of arterial hypertension at the health centers of an industrial enterprise].
abstract: Results of two years of observation over groups of intervention among men and women indicate that the efficacy of non-medicamentous treatment of mild arterial hypertension in women was 1.5 times higher than in men (90 and 65%, respectively). During the same observation period, the mean level of the DBP in women dropped to a larger degree than in men while in women, the treatment usually made the DBP return to normal whereas in men, only the borderline DBP level could be attained. Thus, the systematic control of the BP in patients with mild arterial hypertension, the patients' counselling as regards the healthy way of life, aiding the patients in the observance of health recommendations, early transfer of patients to drug therapy, if the disease takes an unfavourable course, make it possible to attain satisfactory therapeutic effects, the hypotensive effect included, without resorting to permanent use of drugs.
