[Raynaud's phenomenon].

Raynaud's phenomenon is a pathological condition with a multicomponent pathogenesis characterizing the community of mechanisms of the reactivity of the terminal microvessels of the extremities in response to standard stimulation. Raynaud's phenomenon is not a nosological form. In discovering Raynaud's phenomenon, however, differential diagnosis must be conducted to recognize the disease which caused the phenomenon. The diagnosis of Raynaud's disease, which is a nosological form, can be established by the method of exclusion of all such diseases. Raynaud's syndrome in the existence of diseases which are the primary cause is merely a precise diagnostic formulation.

[The role of thrombocytic-vascular and coagulative hemostasis in the pathogenesis of the Raynaud's phenomenon].

Changes of aggregation properties of thrombocytes may be of significance for the development of disturbances of rheological properties of blood in Raynaud's phenomenon. The disturbances of hemostasis in Raynaud's phenomenon are associated first of all with activation of thrombocytic-vascular hemostasis. Coagulative hemostasis had considerably less alterations. Changes of aggregative properties of thrombocytes and coagulation hemostasis had certain peculiarities in each variation of the Raynaud's phenomenon according to the classification made at the authors' clinic, which supports the validity of this classification.

[Potentiating the regional effect of hyperbaric oxygenation in Raynaud's phenomenon].

A usual method of hyperbaric oxygenation is insufficiently effective at the late stages of Raynaud's phenomenon. A new "chamber-in-chamber" method of HBO permits essentially improving the results at these stages. Two versions of the new method should be used, each for its own indications. Intermittent pneumo-compression without rarefaction in the small chamber is good for "functional" Raynaud's phenomenon, whereas in "organic" Raynaud's phenomenon both intermittent compression and rarefaction are necessary.
