RESUMO
AIM: To elucidate relationships brain-heart in hemorrhagic stroke depending on the size and location of hematoma and initial state of the heart. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Clinical and paraclinical methods were used in acute and rehabilitation periods in 160 patients with hemorrhagic stroke. RESULTS: Symptoms of cerebrocardial syndrome in hemorrhagic stroke include arrhythmias (tachycardia, bradycardia, extrasystole, cardiac fibrillation, sick sinus syndrome), blocks (transient bundle-branch block), myocardial dystrophy, in IHD--ischemic myocardial disorders up to subendocardial myocardial infarction. Its severity in massive hemispherical hematomas was due to compression of the brain trunk. CONCLUSION: Pathogenesis of cerebrocardial syndrome rests on impaired central autonomic regulation occurring in stroke.
