[Outpatient 24-hr monitoring of arterial blood pressure in women with arterial hypertension during postmenopausal period].
The article is dedicated to a pressing problem of arterial hypertension in the postmenopausal period. Our objective in this study was identifying of special features of the course of arterial hypertension by data secured from a 24-hr monitoring of AH in those women in the post-menopausal period of both surgical and natural genesis. Those women with a surgical menopause had a higher level of AH in the diastole, with that in the systole being the same as in the control group in spite of the fact that the former women were at about the same age, as evidenced by results of the study made. The load indices were also higher, which fact suggested to us, first, a gravier course of AH in those women with a natural menopause and second, that removal of ovaries at the child-bearing age is a prognostically unfavourable factor.
