title: [The possibilities of using intermittent normobaric hypoxia for treating hypertension patients].
abstract: The response to intermittent normobaric hypoxia (INH) created in breathing gas hypoxia mixture (10% oxygen, 90% nitrogen) was evaluated in 123 patients with essential hypertension stage I and II. Hypoxia adaptation effects on central hemodynamics, physical performance, kinetics of oxygen exchange were studied. A pronounced response to INH persistent for 6 months was demonstrated in 80.5% of the patients. The reduction of the arterial pressure resulted from different mechanisms depending on hemodynamic type. Physical performance of the patients rose, oxygen consumption and transport normalized.
