[The characteristics of the central and peripheral hemodynamics in patients with disseminated sclerosis]

Tetrapolar rheography and rheovasoplethysmography were used to examine the central and peripheral hemodynamics in the v course of complex treatment in 37 patients suffering of multiple sclerosis. At early stages of the disease with a remitting course and at the phase of remission the patients showed a hyperkinetic type of blood circulation, increase of the vascular tone of the peripheral blood vessels. Severe forms of the disease, progressive course and the exacerbation phase was characterized by the hypokinetic type of blood circulation, dystonic and atonic state of extremity blood vessels. Examination of the central and peripheral hemodynamics allows to objectivize the condition of patients with multiple sclerosis and treatment efficacy.
