ABSTRACT
From the medicosocial point of view, arteriosclerosis obliterans is important not only because of the increased number of the diseased, but also because of being more and more prominent in the mortality of cardiovascular diseases. This paper presents a case report which points to the importance of synchronized diagnostic and therapeutic process--on time identification of the II clinical stage of arteriosclerosis obliterans (electromyoneurography, US-Doppler, perfusion pressure), and application of physiotherapeutic measures which can contribute to effective therapy and rehabilitation. Using vasotrain apparatus (hyper-hypo-baric-effect) and other therapeutic measures in the patient with arteriosclerosis obliterans, diabetic polyneuropathy and compression traumatic radiculopathy, regression from the IIB to IIA clinical stage was achieved as well as of features of diabetic polyneuropathy. In this way the III clinical stage of arteriosclerosis obliterans can be delayed.
