[High-tone therapy in complex rehabilitation of patients with post-sternotomy syndrome after coronary artery bypass surgery. (Open-label, prospective, randomized controlled trial)].

Introduction: At present it remains relevant to develop new rehabilitation technologies for patients with circulatory system diseases who have undergone a cardiac surgery to restore the functions of the cardiorespiratory system more quickly, improve physical and mental health, and prevent the development of the atherosclerotic process.

Aim: To study the effectiveness and safety of the new rehabilitation technology for the inpatient stage of medical rehabilitation of patients with post-sternotomy syndrome after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABS) using high-tone therapy.

Material And Methods: The study included 85 men (the average age was 56.

[Physical factors in the medical rehabilitation of patients with chronic cerebral ischemia in the outpatient stage].

Unlabelled: Chronic cerebral ischemia is an urgent problem of modern medicine due to high disability of this contingent of patients and requires new approaches to the treatment and medical rehabilitation.

Objective: To develop a new technology for medical rehabilitation of the patients with chronic cerebral ischemia on an outpatient basis using therapeutic physical factors (such as ozone therapy and magnetic field in combination with endomassage) against the background of rational pharmacotherapy and psychocorrection.

Material And Methods: There have been observed 122 patients with chronic cerebral ischemia stage I.

[The role of the combined balneotherapeutic treatment as the 'add-back therapy' against the background of the anti-hormonal effects of the agonists of gonadotropin-releasing hormone in the women suffering from endometriosis genitalis externa].

Background: The use of agonists of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) for the rehabilitation treatment of the patients presenting with endometriosis genitalis externa is known to significantly enhance the risk of development of hypoestrogenism. The so-called 'add-back-therapy' is carried out as a preventive measure to eliminate hypoestrogenism caused by the intake of GnRH agonists without detriment to the effectiveness of anti-hormonal therapy.

Aim: The objective of the present study was to estimate the effectiveness of the new method ('add-back hormone replacement therapy') in comparison with anti-hormonal therapy with the use of GRH agonists at the stage of the early postoperative medical rehabilitation based on the drinking of mineral waters (MW) and radon therapy (RT) in the patients who had undergone the laparoscopic interventions for the treatment of endometrioid heterotopies of the ovaries (1-3 months post-operatively).
