[Predicting the results of rehabilitation treatment of patients with acute myocardial infarction who underwent coronary artery stenting: focus on the rehabilitation potential]. / Prognozirovanie rezul'tatov vosstanovitel'nogo lecheniya bol'nykh s ostrym infarktom miokarda, perenesshikh stentirovanie koronarnykh arterii: fokus na reabilitatsionnyi potentsial.

The search for ways to assess the rehabilitation potential (RP) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who have undergone stenting remains relevant, which will allow personalizing approaches to prescribing treatment complexes necessary for a particular patient, increasing their effectiveness and reducing the likelihood of complications. OBJECTIVE: To develop a method for assessing RP in patients in the acute period of myocardial infarction and to evaluate its role in predicting the effectiveness of therapeutic measures in the early recovery period. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study consisted of two parts. In the first part, a method for assessing the RP of patients with AMI was created using mathematical modeling methods. For this purpose, the analysis of discharge epicrisis of 137 patients (training sample) with AMI aged from 34 to 85 years (average age 59.4±2.1 years) was carried out. In the second part of the study, the results of rehabilitation measures were analyzed in these patients who, after the intensive care unit and intensive care unit, were transferred to the cardiology department of Angara Clinical Resort JSC. At the end of the II stage of rehabilitation, a multidisciplinary team evaluated the effectiveness of treatment of patients using integral indicators characterizing the clinical condition of a patient who has undergone acute coronary syndrome and stenting. RESULTS: In the first part of the study, devoted to the development of a mathematical model for assessing the RP of patients with AMI, an algorithm of methodology was created: a formalized patient map was formed, the evidence base was represented by 109 indicators; certain indicators were assigned the values of coefficients of linear classification functions, depending on which the patient fell into one of three groups: group 1 - high RP; group 2 - medium RP; group 3 - low RP. The second part of the study was devoted to determining the value of RP for predicting the effectiveness of therapeutic measures in the early recovery period (stage II of medical rehabilitation). When testing patients at the end of treatment at the resort, it was found that the greatest effect was observed in group 1 patients with high RP. A lesser effect was observed in patients of group 2 and, especially, group 3. CONCLUSION: The use of a method for assessing RP based on mathematical modeling in AMI patients who have undergone stenting allows predicting the results of medical rehabilitation of patients at stage II in the conditions of the resort.

The search for ways to assess the rehabilitation potential (RP) in patients with ischemic stroke (IS) remains relevant, which will allow personalizing approaches to prescribing the treatment complexes necessary for a particular patient, increasing their effectiveness and reducing the likelihood of complications. OBJECTIVE: To develop a method for assessing RP in patients in the acute period of IS and to evaluate its role in predicting the effectiveness of therapeutic measures in the early recovery period. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study consisted of two parts. In the first part, using mathematical modeling methods, a method was created for assessing the RP of patients with acute IS. For this, we analyzed the discharge records of 102 patients (training sample) with IS aged 42 to 80 years (mean age 64.0±2.6 years). In the second part of the study, the results of rehabilitation measures were analyzed in these patients, who were transferred from the primary vascular department to the neurological department of Angara Clinical Resort. At the end of stage II of rehabilitation, a multidisciplinary team assessed the effectiveness of treatment of patients using integral indicators characterizing the clinical condition of a patient who had a stroke. RESULTS: In the first part of the study, devoted to the development of a mathematical model for assessing the RP of patients with IS, a methodology algorithm was created: a formalized patient card was created, the evidence base is represented by 85 indicators; certain indicators were assigned the values of the coefficients of linear classification functions, depending on which the patient fell into one of 4 groups: group 1 - satisfactory RP with limitations in rehabilitation measures; group 2 - satisfactory RP; group 3 - low RP; 4th group - high RP. The second part of the study was devoted to determining the value of RP for predicting the effectiveness of therapeutic measures in the early recovery period (stage II of medical rehabilitation). When testing patients at the end of treatment at the resort, it was found that the greatest effect was observed in patients of the 4th group with a high RP. A lesser effect was noted in patients of the 2nd group. The worst results were registered in the 1st and especially in the 3rd groups. CONCLUSION: The use of the method for assessing the RP of patients who have undergone IS, based on mathematical modeling, makes it possible to predict the results of medical rehabilitation of patients with IS at the II stage of rehabilitation in a resort.

[Physiotherapeutic service of the Irkutsk region: present status, problems, and prospect]. / Fizioterapevticheskaya sluzhba Irkutskoi oblasti: sovremennoe sostoyanie, problemy i perspektivy.

INTRODUCTION: Improving the organizational forms of physiotherapy services in the context of the formation of the novel specialty of physical and rehabilitation medicine poses urgent tasks for practical public health. At the same time, ensuring the proper quality of medical care, the high level of safety, customer satisfaction from the new service presents a multifaceted and complex problem that cannot be solved without analyzing the current situation in the units of the physiotherapy network. OBJECTIVE: To study the parameters of the activity of physiotherapy units of treatment-and-prophylactic facilities in the Irkutsk Region to assess the dynamics of their development and further prospects. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The authors analyzed the data of state statistical annual reporting on the work of physiotherapy departments (PTDs) and physiotherapy rooms (PTRs), which had been submitted to the Medical Information Analysis Center, Ministry of Health of the Irkutsk Region, and information on physiotherapeutic medical care in the treatment-and-prophylactic facilities of the Irkutsk Region in the period 2010 to 2017. RESULTS: The quantitative indicators of the activities of PTD and PTR employees were investigated; the qualitative components of their activities were assessed; the problems of physiotherapeutic management were revealed and the ways of their solution were defined. Since 2014, there have been negative changes in the development of physiotherapy: the material and technical base is worsening; the number of doctors and nurses is being reduced; the specialists' qualification is decreasing, and the coverage of patients with physiotherapies is reducing. CONCLUSION: Physiotherapy is currently undergoing a period of stagnation. Along with the existing systemic economic problems of modern public health, the deepening of this negative situation in physiotherapy is promoted by the protracted period of the formation of the new specialty of physical and rehabilitation medicine physician, the absence of its legal base, federal state educational standards, which creates a number of misunderstandings of its promises and demand for physiotherapists in near future.
