METHOD FOR EVALUATING EFFICIENCY IN TREATMENT OF RHINOSINUSITES Russian patent published in 2003 - IPC

FIELD: medicine, otorhinolaryngology. SUBSTANCE: one should conduct the study of neutrophilic phagocytic activity in rhinocytograms in dynamics, moreover, it is additionally studied in cytograms of washing liquids from inflamed antra. One should determine the quantity of destructed neutrophils containing microorganisms to calculate the value of unfinished phagocytosis by the following formula: Nd/(Nc+Nd)x100, where Nd - the number of destructed neutrophils containing undigested bacteria in protoplasm, Nc - the number of complete neutrophils containing microorganisms and at its values being below 50% in rhinocytograms and below 32% in cytograms of washing liquids one should evaluate therapy efficiency to be of high level. EFFECT: higher accuracy of evaluation. 2 dwg, 3 tbl
