ABSTRACT
The function of humoral regulatory systems was studied in hypertensive patients. Relevant dysfunctions appeared related to hemodynamic types. In the hyperkinetic hemodynamic type the greatest benefit for pressor and depressor regulation was achieved with square-wave impulse 10 Hz currents under the orbital method, in the hypokinetic--with sinusoidal modulated currents at 100 Hz modulation frequency. 30 Hz sinusoidal modulated currents under orbital method are able to bring about a marked decrease in both pressor and depressor hormones levels in hypokinetic pattern of hemodynamics producing short-term hypotensive effects. Humoral action of low-frequency impulse electrotherapy depends on the current characteristics, frequency and site of exposure.

The study in 100 patients with stage II essential hypertension showed the validity of introduction of sinusoidal modulated currents into the technique of electric sleep. The results obtained served the basis for creation of the optimal therapeutic regime associated with a 94% response marked in hypertensive patients subjected to correction of systemic and cerebral hemodynamics.
