[The use of laser puncture for managing hypertensive crises].

The authors report efficacy of using laser puncture and pointed massage in controlling hypertensive crises in patients suffering of hypertensive disease. The arterial pressure was reduced mainly due to decrease of the peripheral resistance. This method of treatment was more effective in patients with moderate and significant hypertrophy of the left ventricle as compared with patients showing marked hypertrophy of the left ventricle.

[The effectiveness of laser puncture in hypertension patients].

A study is presented of the results of laser puncture in combination with drug treatment of patients with hypertensive disease using an association of different acupuncture points. The values of hemodynamics were evaluated by routine techniques of tetrapolar chest rheo- and kinetocardiography. The use of laser puncture allowed to reduce the dose of hypotensive drugs.

[The prevention of hypertension].

The instability is shown of some types of hemodynamics in the course of 24 hours in healthy persons. Healthy persons with initial hyper- and normokinetic types of blood circulation are characterized by a disposition to inadequate reaction of the vascular tone in response to diurnal changes of the minute blood volume. Periodic elevation of the peripheral vascular resistance above permissible levels makes it necessary to carry out prophylactic measures against hypertensive disease.
