| Abstract: | Peculiarities of paroxysmal course of autonomic dystonia of cardiac type were studied in 148 juveniles aged 14-15 years. It was found that frequency of panic attacks was very high, i.e. they occurred in 67-92.4% of the cases in dependence on severity of the disease. Panic attacks had no definite clinical picture at the onset. However, as the intensity of the main clinical manifestation of the disease (chest-pain syndrome) increased they acquired clear-cut sympatho-adrenal or vago-insular direction. Short duration and incomplete nels are typical for panic attacks in these patients. |
