Objective:
The aim of the study was to study the headache features in patients with dyscirculatory encephalopathy of different genesis.
Patients And Methods:
Materials and methods: Clinical-neurological and clinical-instrumental examination of 90 persons aged 40 to 68 was performed. The first group consisted of 60 patients with dyscirculatory encephalopathy and arterial hypertension (DE and AH), the second group - 30 patients with dyscirculatory encephalopathy and cerebral atherosclerosis (DE and CA).
Results:
Results: In the study of headache in patients with DE + AH and DE + CA, the frequency of detection, the intensity on the VAS scale, and the nature of the headache, no significant difference was found between study groups.
Conclusion:
Conclusions: According to the results of the study, it was proved that patients with DE + CA had headache in the root area, with the circumstances of headache being significantly outweighed «for no apparent reason» (p = 0.007) and with changing weather conditions (р = 0.001). Arterial hypertension was a major factor in headache (p = 0.008) and in patients with DE + AH.
