The vegetative support in the acute period in the patients with a craniofacial injury

详细

This study included 81 patients (mean age 33 years) who had experienced a craniofacial injury. They were examined with the use of clinical and neurophysiological methods taking into consideration the data from medical histories. The functioning of the vegetative nervous system was estimated from the measurements of the initial vegetative tone, vegetative support, and vegetative reactivity obtained by cardiointervalography (CIG). Dysfunction of the reparative mechanisms turned out to be more pronounced in the patients with the history of neurologic disorders than in those having the unburdened previous medical history.
