It was done the analysis of Doppler gender-age-related aspects of hypertensive remodeling of internal carotid arteries in patients with high blood pressure. It was considered: the diameter of the internal carotid arteries, the maximum linear velocity of blood flow (Vmax), the minimum linear velocity of blood flow (Vmin), the average velocity of the blood flow (Vmed), volume average velocity of the blood flow (Vvol med), the Purselo’s index of circulatory resistance (IR), the Gosling’s pulsation index (IP), the ratio of maximum systolic velocity of blood flow to the maximum diastolic rate (S/D). In with high blood pressure it is revealed an increase in the diameter of the internal carotid artery, a reduction of the maximum, minimum and average volume velocities of the blood flow, a significant increase in IR, IP, S/D, indicating the increase in the density of vascular walls and the increase in peripheral resistance to blood flow. Significant difference between a condition of the internal carotid arteries, depending on age, for men and women with high blood pressure is not revealed. Consequently, to prevent the development of hypertension remodeling of the interior carotid arteries and prevention of violations of cerebral circulation it is necessary to conduct regular antihypertensive therapy regardless of sex and age.
