[The role of rehabilitation and apparatus physiotherapy in rheumatic disease treatment strategies].

Rheumatic diseases are a serious medical and social problem. The variability of mechanisms for the development of this group of diseases requires different approaches: strategies of drug and non-medicament therapy in modern rheumatology are designed to complement each other. EULAR recommendations pay insufficient attention to the use of non-medical methods of joint disease treatment.

[Comparative evaluation of effectiveness of different magnetotherapy regimens in patients with osteoarthritis].

Unlabelled: Impulse low-frequency magnetotherapy is a modern method of treating diseases of the musculoskeletal system, including osteoarthritis. The effectiveness of the therapeutic effect largely depends on the biotropic characteristics of the magnetic fields - the type of magnetic field, induction, frequency, pulse shape, exposure, exposure zone.

Aim Of Study: To conduct a comparative analysis of effectiveness of applying various modes of magnetotherapy using an impulse low-frequency magnetic field in patients with osteoarthritis.

[Chondroprotector transdermal magnetophoresis for osteoarthritis of the knee].

Rationale: Treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) is a relevant problem of rheumatology. Despite a significant number of medical approaches and the creation of new drugs, the effectiveness of treatment remains unsatisfactory, which necessitates the creation of complex treatment programs. Pulse low-frequency magnetotherapy is a modern method that makes it possible to potentiate the therapeutic effects of chondroprotectors for transdermal administration using magnetophoresis technology.

[Evaluation of the efficiency of magnetophoresis transdermal diclofenac delivery in patients with knee osteoarthritis].

Unlabelled: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a serious sociomedical problem, one of the leading causes of persistent disability and reduced quality of life. Modern publications on the use of transdermal drug formulations for OA evaluate the efficiency and safety of isolated drug administration. Pulse magnetotherapy is a modern method for potentiating the therapeutic effects of both the drug and the magnetic field (MF) in the single magnetophoretic technique.

[The rationale for the application of magnetophoresis for the treatment of intra-articular pathology].

The present study was designed to elucidate the influence of the magnetic field on the spectroscopic characteristics of nimesulide and glucosamine sulfate preparations. The secondary objective of the study was to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of the combined application of magnetotherapy and transdermal forms containing a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory preparation and a chondroprotector with the use of magnetophoresis. For this purpose, we analyzed the samples exposed to the running magnetic field in an infrared spectrometer to elucidate the changes in the optical characteristics of the preparations of interest.
