Influence of Altiazem PP-180 on Hemodynamic Parameters in Arterial Hypertension Patients under Outpatient Conditions

The aim of this research work is to study the effect of altiazem PP-180 on hemodynamic parameters in 78 II-degree arterial hypertension patients under outpatient conditions. Hemodynamic effect of altiazem PP-180 hypotensive action was successfully observed at 07.00 a.m., 10.00 a.m. and 10.00 p.m. intake time, with normal patients’ routine. Altiazem PP-180 causes a distinct hypotensive effect in II-degree arterial hypertension patients when used under outpatient conditions at different times of a day both fixed or random. The most productive hemodynamic effect of altiazem PP-180 hypotensive action can be observed when taken at 07.00 a.m., 10.00 a.m. and 10.00 p.m. provided that a normal work/rest routine is kept. When administered at 07.00 a.m., 10.00 a.m. and 10.00 p.m., altiazem PP-180 causes substantial decrease of peripheral vascular resistance, end-diastolic and end-systolic volumes. Hypotensive effect of altiazem PP-180, when administered at 01.00, 04.00 and 07.00 p.m. as well as at non-fixed times of day shows a less favourable hemodynamic effect: reduced cardiac output associated with total and peripheral vascular resistance index.
