    Author: Beloev I, Elenkova A, Pavlov D.
    Journal: Vutr Boles; 1982; 21(2):85-91. PubMed ID: 7101894.
    Abstract:
    Cardiac output was determined to 70 patients with hypertonic disease I, II and III stage by dye-dilution method and urine excretion of adrenaline and noradrenaline was determined by fluorescence method. The extent of stroke and minute volume was determined depending on the stage of the disease, degree of arterial hypertension and patients' age. Noradrenaline excretion was normal in 75.8 per cent from the whole group of the patients examined and decreased in 24.2 per cent. Adrenaline excretion was increased in 7.1 per cent and with normal values--in 92.9 per cent of the patients. No discrepancies in adrenaline and noradrenaline excretion were found in the patients with hypertonic disease, depending both on the degree of arterial hypertension and patients' age. A moderate positive correlation was found between noradrenaline excretion and cardiac index and stroke index.
