Influence on the autonomic cardiovascular system regulation in the treatment of hypertension, arrhythmias and heart failure

Abstract

Cardiovascular diseases are widespread and are the leading death cause in most countries, despite the creation and improvement of strategies to reduce cardiovascular risk. A significant role in the development and evolution of cardiovascular diseases belongs to sympathetic nervous system hyperactivity, and therefore the methods of effecting it are relevant for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular pathology. The article discusses modern approaches to interventional and conservative regulation of the autonomic nervous system and neuromodulation in the prevention and treatment of hypertension, heart failure, tachyarrhythmias, as well as reflects a conjoint expert judgment on these issues.
