Abstract

To assess the effectiveness of additional physical exercise in high school students of a boarding school we used the method of applanation tonometry. We analayzed arterial stiffness (Aix, augmentation index, and AP. pressure augmentation). The children with «white-coat» hypertension, arterial hypertension and masked arterial hypertension were engaged in the study. Our findings demonstrated that the indicators of arterial stiffness significantly decreased after physical activity sessions in adolescents with arterial hypertension.
