    Abstract:
    AIM: To analyze treatment for arterial hypertension in Moscow. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 1056 case histories of hypertensive patients referred to Moscow city cardiological hospital in 1999 were analysed. The analysis covered the following issues: frequency of use of antihypertensive drugs depending on the disease stage; adequacy of the doses; changes in the treatment due to the presence of hypertrophy of the left ventricular myocardium, cardiac failure, vascular complications, diabetes mellitus. RESULTS: Treatment of hypertension was not adequate in many patients. Often, inadequate decisions were made on the drugs doses, course regimens, monotherapy. CONCLUSION: Insufficiently effective treatment of arterial hypertension can result in aggravation of the disease and frequent complications.
