All participants underwent neuropsychological testing; the cognitive evoked potential has been used for mental functions evaluation. Results. Conducted study has shown that the analysis of the cognitive evoked potential parameters is the informative method which supplements the clinical-neuropsychological investigation in diagnostics of cognitive dysfunction in patients of middle age with obesity and arterial hypertension.
