Abstract

The article provides a comparative analysis study of regional blood circulation in 260 patients with osteomyelitis of the lower extremities. In the complex treatment of 130 of them applied gravitational therapy (study group), 130 patients were treated by standard methods (control group). The study was conducted in clinics of the Samara S tate Medical University. Gravitational therapy is a new noninvasive method of physiotherapy, first used in the treatment of patients with osteomyelitis. Studies of regional blood flow convincingly prove that the gravitational therapy provides a pathogenetic therapeutic effect, reducing circulatory ischemia and hypoxia of the tissues, contributing to the normalization of tissue metabolism.
