DIAGNOSTIC TECHNIQUE FOR NEUROGENIC URINARY BLADDER DYSFUNCTION IN PATIENTS WITH CONSEQUENCES OF VERTEBROSPINAL INJURY Russian patent published in 2010 - IPC A61B5/53 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely to acupuncture diagnostics. It involves evaluation of an initial ratio of average electrodermal conductivity (EDC) of the acupuncture urinary bladder canal of the patient to total EDC in the same patient. Total EDC is calculated as a sum of indices of the right and left branches of 12 classical paired acupuncture canals divided by the number of measurements. After a ten-day course of rehabilitation actions, dynamics of this ratio is assessed. If the specified ratio is equal or close to 1.0, and the average of the urinary bladder channel is within a physiological corridor, normalisation of vegetative provision of urination function and its reducibility are concluded. The method provides higher accuracy of diagnostics of neurogenic urinary bladder dysfunctions due to the use in calculation of said index of the EDC of same patient. In turn, higher accuracy of diagnostics provides clinical effectiveness of regeneration ensured by development of an individual rehabilitation program considering specific rehabilitation potential of the patient.

EFFECT: method provides higher accuracy of diagnostics of neurogenic urinary bladder dysfunctions due to the use in calculation of said index of the EDC of same patient; in turn, higher accuracy of diagnostics provides clinical effectiveness of regeneration ensured by development of an individual rehabilitation program considering specific rehabilitation potential of the patient.
