Abstract

The paper presents the results of the study of cerebral circulation using rheoencephalography in 54 middle school-age boys with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and 45 children without this condition. Boys with ADHD showed lower intensity of cerebral blood flow and elasticity of large and medium vessels, as well as reduced vascular tone in the microvascular bed in carotid and vertebrobasilar arteries of the brain. Hindrance of venous outflow and circulation were also observed. Having analyzed the interhemispheric asymmetry, we found a significant increase in blood supply intensity and vascular elasticity in the vertebrobasilar arteries of the left hemisphere, as well as higher vascular tone of small and medium carotid vessels of the right hemisphere.

Keywords
