PATHOGENETIC FEATURES AND PERFORMANCE DIFFERENCES ON THE BACKGROUND OF THERAPY AND PARAMETERS OF ELECTROMYOGRAPHY AND RHEOVASOGRAPHY AT REFLEX AND COMPRESSION-RADICULAR SYNDROME IN PATIENTS WITH LUMBAR OSTEOCHONDROSIS

The purpose to study the features and parameters of rheovasography and electromyography during reflex and compression-radicular syndromes in patients with osteochondrosis lumbar spine, as well as to assess their performance on the back of specially developed differential treatment protocols.

Materials and methods. An integrated study of 120 patients with osteochondrosis of the lumbar spine. There were significant differences in the parameters in different directions of electromyography and rheovasography in patients with radicular syndromes (the most deterioration) compared with patients with reflex syndromes.

Results. Significant differences were obtained after a course of therapy, especially in the group with use of soft techniques of manual therapy (98% cases, has yielded positive results), as evidenced not only subjective improvement, but also the positive clinical data (dynamic electromyography and rheovasography).

Conclusions. Evaluation of the results indicates the need for a treatment algorithm developed for the therapy of patients with acute pain vertebrogenic syndrome in the hospital, indicating a statistically valid feasibility of drug-free management of patients with reflex and radicular syndromes of lumbar degenerative disc disease during the proposed complex restorative treatment.
