Popis: Objective. To assess the incidence of different variants of arterial hypertension (AH) among students daily BP regulation. Design and methods. 234 students of Stavropol State Medical Academy of both sexes aged 18-23 years (middle age 21,4  0,2 years) were examined, among them 73 men and 161 women. Physical examination and blood pressure (BP) measuring by traditional and monitor methods were performed. For statistical analysis software package STATISTICA, version 6,0 was used. Results. 10,7 % (25 people) of students had isolated offi ce AH and 11,5 % (27 people) had latent AH. Subjects having any type of labile AH demonstrated an increase of daily systolic and diastolic BP and an elevation of mean hemodynamic and pulse BP that has negative predictive value, they also showed an increase of pathological daily profi le rate. Conclusions. About a quarter of young people have various forms of AH that can be diagnosed by only use of 24-hour BP monitoring. They need an active follow-up at the centers of students health.
