BACKGROUND: Currently, an infectious corneal ulcer, a defect in the corneal epithelium, remains one of the main causes of monocular blindness, which necessitates the development of new effective methods of treatment. AIMS: The aim of the study is to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of a methodology for the complex application of preformed physical factors of local and segmental action in patients with corneal ulcers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study involved 85 patients with corneal ulcer defect aged 18 to 60 years, who were divided into three groups. Patients of the control group (29 people) received standard drug therapy, the comparison group (29 people) underwent a course of magnetophoresis with solcoseryl on closed eyelids against the background of standard drug therapy, patients of the main group (27 people) received standard drug therapy. magnetophoresis and low-frequency electrostatic fields on the collar area. All patients were assessed for visual acuity, the size of the ulcer and the area of stromal infiltration. The subjective severity of pain syndrome (VAS scale), psychoemotional state (SAN test) were assessed. RESULTS: Immediately after treatment, visual acuity in the main group was significantly higher than in the comparison group and the control group, and averaged 0.140.14. The size of the ulcerative defect in the main group was significantly smaller than in the control group and the comparison group (p 0.05). The assessment of the psychoemotional state of patients after treatment revealed significant differences in the main group in relation to the control group on the Well-Being scale (p 0.05). CONCLUSION: The use of preformed physical factors in the form of a course application of a low-frequency electrostatic field and magnetophoresis with the drug Solcoseryl made it possible to shorten the time of epithelialization of the ulcer and suppression of the inflammatory reaction in the cornea, which made it possible to significantly improve the clinical and functional parameters of the eye, as well as reduce the severity of pain syndrome against the background of an improvement in the psycho-emotional state patients.

Introduction. The presence of somatic diseases during pregnancy leaves a serious imprint on the emotional state of a woman, significantly worsens the quality life indicators and affects the clinical characteristics of pregnancy. One of these diseases is chronic pyelonephritis. There are a fairly large number of recommendations for the treatment of this pathology. However the focus is mainly on drug therapy. At the same time the existing restrictions on the number of drugs using during pregnancy, the problem of polypragmasia, and the increase in the number of allergic complications of drugs using dictate the need to search alternative methods of treatment, primarily non-drug ones. Moreover, the problems of pregnant women life quality with chronic pyelonephritis during complex drug therapy are often not given due attention.The goal of research — to assess the impact of osteopathic correction on the psycho-emotional state and life quality of pregnant women with concomitant pathology of the urinary system.Materials and methods. A prospective controlled randomized study was conducted in the period 03.2016– 01.2018 on the basis of medical clinics of LLC «Mokhov Institute of osteopathy» and LLC «Vasileostrovskaya clinic of reproduction and genetics». There were observed work 48 pregnant women with chronic pyelonephritis aged 25–45 years, with a gestation period 13–27 weeks. During the processing of the clinical material, 8 patients were eliminated. As a result of the selection process, a group of 40 people was formed. All pregnant women with chronic kidney disease, depending on the used treatment method, were divided into two groups using a simple randomization method with a random number generator. There was formed the main group (20 people), and the control group (20 people). Patients of the main group received medication and osteopathic correction (3 procedures with an interval of 7–10 days). Patients in the control group received only traditional drug therapy. All pregnant women with chronic pyelonephritis had an osteopathic examination before and after treatment with forming an osteopathic conclusion, and the assessment of the pain syndrome severity by a visual analog scale (VAS), the general psycho-emotional state (the method of rapid assessment of health, activity and mood — HAM), and the level of life quality (Questionnaire Medical Outcomes Study — Short Form).Results. Pregnant women with chronic pyelonephritis were characterized by a weak pain syndrome, a psychoemotional state violations in the categories «well-being» and «activity», and a decrease in both the physical and mental components of life quality. After the complex treatment including the additional to traditional drug therapy osteopathic correction methods, the statistically significant decrease of the pain severity degree (p=0,001), increase of psychoemotional state rates in the category of «activity» (p=0,05) and the increase of physical and mental components of life quality (p=0,02) were observed in the main group compared with the control.Conclusion. Chronic pathology of the kidneys during pregnancy affects the emotional state of a woman, significantly worsens life quality indicators. The use of osteopathic correction as a part of the complex therapy of pregnant women with chronic pyelonephritis can improve the emotional state and life quality; reduce the pain severity, and so can be used to improve medical care for this population category.

Background. In recent years, in the general structure of the incidence of ENT organs diseases, the pathology of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses has firmly ranked first both in terms of visits to the clinic and in the group of patients undergoing inpatient treatment, which indicates a trend in an increase in the incidence rate. Septoplasty is one of the most commonly performed rhinological surgeries. Aim: to analyze the effectiveness of complex treatment on the state of cerebral hemodynamics in patients with septal deviation after septoplasty. Methods. Rehabilitation of patients was performed in several stages. Preoperative preparation included low-intensity laser exposure along with drug therapy. In this study, in order to prevent complications and activate reparative processes, patients of the main group (n=40) received additional bipolar-pulse irritative current therapy, while the control group patients (n=10) received only standard drug therapy. Results. Patients of the main group showed an increase in treatment efficiency, a significant improvement in the clinical condition and indicators of cerebral hemodynamics compared with the control group. Conclusion. To prevent complications and activate reparative processes in modern rehabilitation, it is necessary to integrate therapeutic measures, which can include, in addition to surgical methods, drug therapy (anti-inflammatory drugs, antihistamines, anticholinergics, etc., as well as physical factors (medicinal electrophoresis, ultraphonophoresis, laser therapy, magnetotherapy, etc.).

The purpose of the study is to improve rehabilitation treatment of patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP) at inpatient stage by strengthening pharmacological potential of drug therapy due to inclusion of therapeutic physical factors (TPF) in therapeutic programs. Materials and methods. 159 patients with acute CP were observed. By simple randomization, 4 groups were formed: the control group (MG, 39 people) received standard drug therapy; 1st comparison group (GC1; 38 people) additionally received TPF; GC2 (40 people) in addition to treatment in GC1 had drinking mineral water «Slavyanovskaya»; in main group (42 people) in addition to the treatment in GC2 got preformed peloidotherapy on the cervical-collar zone. All the patients underwent the evaluation of clinical score and quality of life before and after medical rehabilitation. Results. In MG, clinical symptomatology leveling was by 78,2% (p<0,01), in GC1 — by 71,5% (p<0,01), GC2 — by 62,3% (p<0,01), CG — by 57,2% (p<0,01) on average immediately after the treatment, which was in a clear correlation with indicators of quality of life. In the long term (in 6 and 12 months), the advantage of combination therapy was noted with the same validity, the preservation of the achieved positive result was mostly noted in the MG: after 6 months the improvement in physical health compared to the initial values was noted by 34,4% (p<0,01), after 12 months — by 24,0% (p<0,05); mental — by 32,3% (p<0,01) and 22,5% (p<0,05), respectively. In both comparison groups, positive dynamics was 10–12% lower, and in the control group, after 6 months, there was only a tendency to improve quality of life indicators. Conclusion. The inclusion of TPF in the programs of the inpatient stage of medical rehabilitation of patients with chronic pancreatitis by strengthening the pharmacological potential of drug therapy contributes to the leveling of clinical manifestations (abdominal pain, dyspepsia and diarrhea), the result of which is an improvement in the quality of life of this category of patients.

Objective. The purpose of this study is to study the effect of electrical stimulation by bipolar-pulsed microcurrents: in an experiment on lymphatic drainage of a marker from the mesentery of mice and in the clinic on patients with hypertrophic scars in the face. Materials and methods. In the experiment, the rate of resorption of the marker from the mesentery of mice (n = 10) receiving the placebo procedure and mice (n = 10) receiving the course of electrical stimulation with bipolar-pulsed microcurrents were measured under a light microscope. In addition, the clinic observed patients aged 18 to 60 years (n = 100), with hypertrophic scars in the face area that arose for various reasons. Of these, the 1st (control) group of patients (n = 10) received only one standard drug therapy, and the 2nd (main) group (n = 90) additionally received electrical stimulation with bipolar-pulsed microcurrents in the face area. Results. The experiment showed that the rate of resolution of the marker in the mesentery of the intestines of mice after a course of electrical stimulation was greater than in mice treated with the placebo procedure. In a clinical study in patients in the 2nd (main) group after a course of electrical stimulation, on the background of drug therapy, better results were achieved on the Vancouver Scar Scale and in a shorter time period than in patients in the 1st (control) group who received drug therapy . The greater effectiveness of the results in patients in the 2nd (main) group was confirmed by the data of statistical regression analysis. Conclusions. The results of this experiment showed that electrical stimulation by bipolar-pulsed microcurrents accelerates lymphatic drainage in the mesentery of the intestines of mice. In a clinical study, the use of electrical stimulation with bipolar-pulsed microcurrents in patients with hypertrophic scars in the face region in the 2nd group showed high efficiency and the transition of hypertrophic scars to normotrophic ones in earlier periods.

Introduction. Glaucoma is one of the most significant eye diseases. It is often diagnosed, not always amenable to therapy, and can lead to a complete loss of visual functions. In recent years, the method of osteopathic correction has become widespread as one of the effective methods of treatment and rehabilitation of patients with pathologies of various body systems. In the pathogenesis of glaucoma, it is customary to distinguish a dystrophic concept, which considers primary open-angle glaucoma as a result of dystrophic changes in the connective tissue, as well as in the endothelial lining of the trabeculae and Schlemm′s canal, especially destructive changes in mitochondria and the alteration of their functional activity. A vascular concept is also distinguished. According to this concept, the central link in the pathogenesis of glaucoma is circulatory disorder in the ciliary vessels, ocular artery, and major vessels of the head and neck, it can be assumed that osteopathic correction in the treatment of patients with open-angle glaucoma will be pathogenetically substantiated and will have a positive effect on intraocular pressure and trophicity of the optic nerve. The goal of research — to study the influence of in osteopathic correction on the nature of unoperated glaucoma (stage IIA) and to substantiate the possibility of using osteopathic correction in the complex treatment of patients with this pathology.Materials and methods. A prospective controlled randomized study was conducted at 52 city polyclinics, branch 3, Moscow, from January 2018 to January 2019. 40 patients (70 eyes) aged 50 to 75 years with primary open-angle glaucoma IIA stage were examined. At this stage of the disease, patients most often seek medical care and the issue of conservative management is primarily considered. All patients were divided into two groups of 20 people: the main group and the control group. The treatment in the main group included hypotensive drug therapy and osteopathic correction. Patients of the control group received only drug therapy. All patients underwent ophthalmic (visometry, tonometry, perimetry) and osteopathic examination twice: before the treatment and after 3 months.Results. For patients with primary open-angle IIA non-operated glaucoma, regional (most often regions of the head, neck, dura mater) and local (abdominal diaphragm, iliac bones, hip and knee joints) somatic dysfunctions were the most typical. In the main group a statistically significant decrease in the frequency and severity of dysfunctions at all levels was stated. Also, in patients receiving osteopathic correction, a significant decrease in the level of intraocular pressure and perimetric indices was noted. In patients of the control group, no reliable changes in these indicators were obtained.Conclusion. The results obtained indicate that osteopathic correction is clinically effective in the complex treatment of patients with primary open-angle II A glaucoma.

Introduction. Degenerative-dystrophic changes in the spine are the most common chronic human diseases. Pronounced clinical manifestations of vertebrogenic diseases are observed during active labor activity and represent one of the most frequent causes of temporary disability. It is also known that any pain syndromes are accompanied by the development of psychovegetative disorders, which reduces the effectiveness of treatment. In recent years, there has been a reasonable increase in the interest of the medical community to the non-drug treatment methods. It is caused by the polypharmacotherapy side effects, an increased numbers of allergic reactions, problems with polypragmasia, and a low level of compliance. At the same time, the question of the possibility of various non-drug treatment methods combining is quite acute.The goal of research is to substantiate the clinical effectiveness of the combined application of osteopathic correction and reflexotherapy in the complex treatment of patients with dorsopathy at the cervical-thoracic level.Materials and methods. A prospective controlled randomized study was conducted on the basis of the medical clinics of LLC «Family Health» (Kazan) and ANO «Center for SEB assistance» (Kazan) from April 2018 to May 2019. The study involved 52 people with dorsopathy at the cervical-thoracic level, aged from 25 to 45 years. In accordance with the exclusion criteria, 7 people dropped out of the study. The remaining patients (45 people), depending on the used treatment method, were divided by a simple randomization method using a random number generator into three groups of 15 people. The first group (main group) received osteopathic correction and reflexotherapyon the background of standard drug therapy; the second and the third groups (control groups) received only osteopathic correction orreflexotherapy, respectively, on the background of standard drug therapy. The osteopathic examination was performed for all patients regardless of the group, before and after the course of therapy, with the formation of an osteopathic conclusion.Also there was the estimation of the degree of pain syndrome severity,the asthenia, and the degree of accumulated emotional and energy charge that does not get out in a person.Results. It was found in the course of the study that the inclusion of osteopathic correction and reflexotherapy in the complex therapy of patients with dorsopathy at the cervical-thoracic level is clinically more effective than the isolated use of these methods. Such complex therapy allows to achieve a more significant reduction in the severity of the pain syndrome by VAS (p<0,05), relief of internal emotional tension (p<0,05), and increase the effectiveness of correction of dominant somatic dysfunction. Based on the obtained data, it could be assumed that reflexotherapy potentiates the effects of osteopathic correction.Conclusion. Based on the study, it can be concluded that the combination of osteopathic correction and reflexotherapy in the treatment of patients with dorsopathy at the cervical-thoracic level increases the clinical effectiveness of the standard drug therapy. At the same time, it is worth noting the potentiating effect of the combined use of two non-medicinal methods. The question of combining of various non-drug treatment methods is quite acute today, so this study will be continued.
