ABSTRACT

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the complex application of infrared low-energy laser radiation(IR NLI) and pulsed low-frequency electrostatic field (INESP) in the treatment of patients with osteoarthritis of the kneejoint. 100 patients with gonarthrosis (HA) of 1–2 stages, aged from 50 to 75 years, were examined. Prior to treatment, mostpatients with GA had complaints of pain when walking and at rest, restriction of movements in the knee joints, revealedmicrocirculation disorders (MC). After the complex application of INESP and IR NLI in patients with GA, a significant decreasein the severity of pain syndrome was revealed.After the complex application of INESP and IR NLI in patients with GA, a significant decrease in the severity of painsyndrome was revealed. There was a correction of microcirculatory disorders, as well as a significant improvement inthe psycho-emotional state and quality of life of patients, which indicates the appropriateness and effectiveness of theintegrated use of INESP and IC NLI in patients with GA.


KEYWORDS: gonarthrosis, laser Doppler flowmetry, microcirculation, pulsed low-frequency electrostatic field, infrared low-energy laser radiation.
