Abstract

To assess changes in the myocardium in adolescents with masked arterial hypertension, was given a comparative analysis of the data of ultrasound of the heart (end diastolic left ventricular size – CRA, thickness of the interventricular septum – MZP, thickness of the posterior wall of the left ventricle – LZZL), as well as the values of the mass of the myocardium of the left ventricle and left ventricular myocardial mass index – in children from two groups: with normal arterial pressure and masked arterial hypertension. The results of the study showed that adolescents with masked arterial hypertension have signs of hypertrophic changes in the myocardium.

Keywords

masked arterial hypertension, adolescents, changes in the myocardium, mass of the myocardium of the left ventricle, left ventricular myocardial mass index.
