[Central hemodynamic reactions to exercise in patients with infantile cerebral paralysis as a possibility of choosing a procedure for anesthesia and predicting its course].

The major parameters of physical development and central hemodynamics were studied in children suffering from moderate and severe infantile cerebral paralysis (ICP) at rest and after routine exercise. Examinations were made in 2 groups of children: 1) 15 patients aged 3 - 8 years (5.4 +/- 0.49 years); 15 patients aged 9 - 16 years (13.3 +/- 0.97 years). The children' height in the young group was an average 12% less; their hemodynamic changes followed the hyperdynamic type with an increase in cardiac index (CI) (by 49% higher than the normal values) due to stroke index. In the old group, SI was increased by 32% of the normal value due to tachycardia with normal growth-height indices. In ICP patients, central hemodynamic parameters were linked with the pathogenesis of the disease and should be taken into account while choosing an anesthetic mode in the surgical correction of the locomotor apparatus.
