Abstract

In recent years, the concept of cardiovascular risk factors, one of which is the process of vascular aging, has been of great interest. 30 patients with stage 2–3 of arterial hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus aged 45 to 65 years were included, including 23 women and 7 men. Patients after the washout period a fixed combination of perindopril with amlodipine (the original drug Prestans, AO Servier) in the form of tablets (perindopril arginine / amlodipine bezilat) were prescribed for 12 weeks, 1 time per day. Vascular age and 5-year risk of developing cardiovascular complications were calculated on the calculator app for smartphones ADVANTAGE AGE (Les laboratories Servier version 2, 2015). After 12-week therapy with a fixed combination of perindopril and amlodipine, the achievement of target blood pressure values was noted in 100 % of patients. The average passport age of the patients included in the study was (61,9 ± 4,4) [45; 65] years. In assessment vascular age, there was a statistically significant initial increase in vascular age above the passport age – (69,3 ± 8,5) [55; 89] years. 46,7 % of patients have an average risk of developing cardiovascular complications and 53,3 % of patients have a high risk of cardiovascular accidents. After 12 weeks of therapy with arginine perindopril and amlodipine bezilate, there was a significant decrease of vascular age to 63,1 ± 5,6 [51; 73] years, a decrease in the percentage of patients with high risk of cardiovascular complications to 23,4 % (p < 0,05), due to patients with average risk (53,3 %, at p < 0,05), and the appearance of patients (3,3 %) with a low risk of cardiovascular accidents within 5 years. In patients with arterial hypertension and diabetes millitus type 2, vascular age significantly increases in comparison with the passport age. The use of a fixed combination of perindopril arginine / amlodipine bezilate for 12 weeks in this category of patients significantly reduces the vascular age of patients and reduces the frequency of detection of patients with high and medium risk of cardiovascular accidents.
