| Summary: | Objective: to examine the autonomic nervous system in 15–17‑year-old adolescents.Subjects and methods: 2015 adolescents (1080 boys and 935 girls) aged 15–17 years were examined. The tables developed by A. M. Wayne, cardiointervalography, wedge orthostatic test, and heart rhythm variability were used to evaluate the autonomic nervous system. Results. The study showed that the adolescents of both sexes (82% of boys and 84.8% of girls) showed an imbalanced autonomic nervous system as sympathicotonia, vagotony, and vegetative vascular dystonia of mixed-type.Conclusion. The adolescents belong to a group at risk for psychosomatic diseases in the future and therefore require a special followup and prevention activities. |
