title: [Changes in platelet function in patients with arterial hypertension].
abstract: The authors examined some indicators of platelet activity in patients with hypertension stage II (according to WHO). They revealed an increased platelet activity which was manifested by an increased concentration of platelet factor 4 (50.2 +/- 28.2 ng/ml) and thromboxane B2 (49.9 +/- 20.1 pg/ml) in plasma. The increase of indicators of platelet activation associated with hypertension is a molecular marker of activation of haemostasis and according to data in the literature it is an indicator of vascular complications in hypertension. It is not clear whether the increased platelet functions in hypertension is primary or an induced change.
