Klíčová slova: Humans; Neurocirculatory Asthenia, diagnosis,

Functional disorders of the circulation imply an inadequate circulatory response to repeated, in particular mental strain, associated with typical complaints and manifestations. Instead of the formerly used term of neurocirculatory asthenia nowadays neurotic conditions with manifestations in the circulation are described more frequently as hyperventilation syndrome, syndrome of chronic fatigue or panic anxiety syndrome. The paper deals with the pathogenesis, diagnosis, prognosis and therapy where a talk with the patient, elucidating the relationship between the stressing situation and circulatory manifestations is most important.
