[Autonomic reactions in patients with infantile cerebral palsy].
The authors examined the neurovegetative reactions in 20 children aged 2 to 5 years suffering from infantile cerebral paralysis. The children examined had suffered perinatal hypoxia and natal intracranial injuries. Combined examinations of the cardiovascular, respiratory, and thermoregulatory systems were carried out in standard conditions in a microclimate chamber. Various types of the response of the above systems to the orthostatic, solar, and oculocardiac loads were revealed. The disturbances of the homeostatic functions of the central and peripheral genesis on the one hand, and mode-rate hypertensive-hydrocephalic syndrome on the other were found to be in parallel. On the basis of the data of their experimental study the authors conclude that in the children examined the higher vegetative centres responsible for the body homeostasis have suffered a hypoxic damage.
