[Application of kinesis-taping and low frequency pulse magnetic therapy in medical rehabilitation of athletes with post-traumatic edema of the lower extremities]. / Primenenie kinezioteipirovaniya i nizkochastotnoi impul'snoi magnitoterapii v meditsinskoi reabilitatsii sportsmenov s posttravmaticheskim otekom nizhnikh konechnostei.

In the conditions of increasingly stringent anti-doping rules, the development of new non-drug methods of treatment and rehabilitation of athletes is of particular importance. OBJECTIVE: Development of new methods of medical rehabilitation of athletes after injury. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Thirty-three athletes with knee injuries were examined. The main complaints were the presence of pronounced edema in the area of injury. All patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: in group 1 (16 patients) lymphatic drainage kinesis-taping was performed; in the 2nd group (17 patients) - complex treatment including lymphatic drainage kinesis-taping and low-frequency pulse magnetic therapy. Using laser Doppler flowmetry a study of microcirculatory disorders in the area of injury was carried out. The severity of edema was assessed by measuring the circumference of the knee joint of the diseased and healthy limbs. The assessment of the subjective feelings of athletes using questionnaires CIVIQ2 andVAS. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Based on the obtained subjective and objective data, a medical complex was developed using lymphatic drainage kinesis-taping and low-frequency pulse magnetic therapy, which affects different steps in the pathogenesis of edema formation. Data obtained resultedin more pronounced positive effect during complex treatment compared with monotherapy with kinesis-taping.

[Gastroesophageal reflux disease with cardial manifistations: perspectives of non-pharmacological treatment methods]. / Gastroézofageal'naia refliuksnaia bolezn' s kardial'nymi proiavleniiami: perspektivy nemedikamentoznykh metodov lecheniia.

In this article we present the review of the literature and our own research regarding gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) with cardiac manifestations. The methods of treatment of patients with GERD using mineral waters, physio- and balneotherapeutic factors, as well as acupuncture are discussed. The conclusion is drawn about the effectiveness of the use of non-pharmacological methods in mono- and complex therapy of GERD and the need for further research in this direction.

[PATHOGENETIC ASPECTS OF REHABILITATION OF PATIENTS AFTER CHOLECYSTECTOMY].

UNLABELLED: Investigation of efficiency of liquid synbiotics and structure-resonance electric magnetic therapy (SRMT) among patients after cholecystectomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 90 patients after cholecystectomy have been investigated (CE). Along with general clinical meth-ods of investigation, patients passed US investigation of abdomen, biochemical blood tests, bacteriological test of faeces, investigation of short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) by gas-liquid osteal chromatographic analysis. State of vegetative nervous system passed analysis according to variability of heart rhythm (VHR) by spectral analysis method using "Cardiac technic 4000 AD" cardiac monitor in frame of 24-hr ECG monitoring. Estimation of life quality (LQ) of patients after cholecystectomy has been conducted by "SF-36 Health status survey". Patients have been divided into 3 groups, comparable according to the main clinical and functional indicators. Patients of first group (30 people) passed correction of dysbiosis by liquid synbiotics. Patients of a second group (30 persons) passed complex treatment of SRMT and liquid synbiotics. Control group was composed by 30 patients after cholecystectomy who had been receiving diet therapy. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: In term of investigation 90% of patients have shown decrease of number and methabolic activity of microflora, change of activity of anaerobic microorganisms. Analysis of variability of heart rhythm have displayed relative prevalence of sympathetic modulation of a rhythm on the background of elevated ergotropic component of the total capacity of a spectrum; estimation of life quality (LQ) has shown that limitation of physical activity is a most considerable contribution to decrease of LQ among patients after cholecystectomy. After a course of liquid synbiotics and SMRT recovery and improvement of intestines and improvement of all indicator of life quality is observed.
