TREATMENT CORRECTION OF EXACERBATIONS OF CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE BY LASER BIOPHOTOMETRY
The most common comorbid pathology in a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is arterial hypertension. Both of these diseases have mutually an aggravating effect that requires a special approach to the treatment of this disease. The aim of the study is to improve treatment of patients with COPD in combination with hypertension by means of magnetic laser therapy. 67patients were examined and divided into 2 groups. The patients of basic group received the standard and magnetic laser therapy according to the suggested methods. The patients of the control group received the standard therapy and placebo as imitation of magnetic laser therapy. The use of the photo-recorder allows to receive information on effectiveness of treatment of changes of reflection coefficient. Results. Most ratios had improved after therapy, compared with placebo. Laser biophotometry allows to control the course of treatment and has diagnostic value. Conclusion. The obtained results can be recommended for wide application the MLT in complex treatment of patients with COPD combined with HD.
