DISORDERS OF PERIPHERAL CIRCULATION AMID CHRONIC OSTEOCHONDROSIS OF THE LUMBAR SPINE
The state of peripheral circulation in 28 men were analyzed, patients with osteochondrosis of the lumbar spine, accompanied by lumbodynia with clinical symptoms of impaired peripheral circulation of the lower extremities was carried out. All patients who took part in our study signed an informed consent to participate in the program and a non-disclosure agreement of personal data and research protocol. The criteria for the analysis were clinical symptoms of osteochondrosis of the lumbar spine caused by lumbodynia and indicators of oximetry studies, which were recorded during the initial visit and after 7 days amid treatment and regression of pain syndrome. Thus, the results indicated a reflex disorder of the peripheral circulation due to the development of a pathological spinal-vasal inhibitory reflex caused by lumbodynia, which is restored amid regression of pathological impulses in the lumbar spine. It is advisable to continue research in this direction.
