ABSTRACT
Adaptation to periodic hypoxia (decompression 490 mm Hg) in a multiplace medical pressure chamber of patients with hypertension, cardial neurocirculatory asthenia, coronary heart disease produced a persistent hypotensive effect with improvement of central and peripheral hemodynamics, oxygen homeostasis, electrolyte balance of blood. In patients with neurocirculatory asthenia associated with ventricular and supraventricular extrasystole positive hemodynamic changes accompanied a persistent antiarrhythmic effect. In addition to the latter, CHD patients experienced improvement in myocardial contractility. Clinical effect of baroadaptation to hypoxia manifesting in symptom relief permitted the physicians to diminish the intensity of chemotherapy and to abolish it in patients with neurocirculatory asthenia.

Patients with essential hypertension were exposed to periodic hypoxia in a pressure chamber. It is shown that adaptation to periodic hypoxia results in improvement of general condition of patients who exhibited a decline in blood pressure, minute blood volume, serum sodium concentrations as well as better microcirculation and tissue oxygen tension. Reduced concentrations of total serum cholesterol and atherogenic index were achieved in hypercholesterolemia patients. The changes obtained permitted reduction of hypotensive maintenance treatment. In view of positive results in hypertensive subjects, adaptation to periodic hypoxia in a pressure chamber is recommended for inclusion into combined regimens of hypertension therapy.

Patients who had had myocardial infarction complicated by the initial stages of cardiac insufficiency were tested for capacity for work and haemodynamics while undergoing outpatient rehabilitation. A rehabilitation program is offered based on self-training under periodic control, which consists in individual walks and medical gymnastics. Patients undergoing rehabilitation compared to the control groups show statistically significant decrease of symptoms of cardiac insufficiency, enhanced physical capacity for work, improved haemodynamics. This rehabilitation program can be recommended for patients with initial stages of cardiac insufficiency.

Different types of stomach sontractions (enhancement of muscle tone, rhythmic and digestive activities, periodic activity) have their own specific reflections in the electrogastrogram (EGG). No contractile activity of the stomach easily differentiated by the EGG from the gastric secretion, interferes with the electrophysiological analysis of the latter which is particularly important in study of the initial period of gastric glands functioning.
