METHOD FOR INTEGRATED PHYSIOTHERAPEUTIC TREATMENT AND PREVENTION OF RECURRENT UROLITHIASIS Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC A61N7/00 A61N5/67 A61N2/04 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely - to physiotherapy, urology. A method involves the integrated physiotherapeutic effect of three physical factors. The ultrasonic exposure is characterised by frequency 2.7 kHz + 0.2 kHz, length 9 ms, pulse period 200 ms. The exposure to magnetic field is characterised by magnetic induction amplitude 1300 mT, pulse period 80 ms. The laser exposure is characterised by power 5.0 Wt, frequency 80 Hz. Total duration of a procedure is 30 minutes.

EFFECT: due to using the sequential effect of three physical factors, the method reduces the period of small urolith evacuation, the intensity of pain syndrome, requirement in analgesic and anti-spasmodic drugs, minimises the development of sclerotic changes in the ureter wall that improves urinary outflow and reduces a risk of recurrent urolith formation.
