METHOD OF TREATING MUSCULOSKELETAL DISORDERS CAUSED BY LABOUR ACTIVITY Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A61H1/00 A61M35/00 A61N7/00 A61N2/04 A61K35/10 A61P19/02 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: method involves doing therapeutic exercises and pulsed ultrasonic therapy at a pulse length of 10 ms. That is combined with the magnetic stimulation of the shoulder girdle muscles: m. trapezius m. deltoideus, m. supraspinatus, m. infraspinatus on the involved side. That involves the exposure in accordance with a stable technique with using paired pulses of the length of 220±20 mcs at a pulse repetition frequency of 25±5 pulse/min and a pulse-to-pulse spacing of 80 ms for 3 min per one field. The exposure intensity is 70-90% of the maximum magnetic induction amplitude 1,300 mT. The total length of the procedure is 12 minutes. Then 30 minutes later, mud therapy is conducted by applications on the involved shoulder joint. A mud cake temperature makes 38-40 degrees, and the length of the exposure makes 20 minutes. The mud therapy is followed by ultrasonic therapy. The exposure covers the rotator cuff and attachment points of the tendons - m. supraspinatus, m. infraspinatus, m. teres minor on the involved side. The exposure follows a labile technique at an intensity of 0.2-0.4 W/cm² for 2 minutes per each field at the total length of the procedure of 8 minutes. The procedures are daily. The therapeutic course is 8-10 procedures.

EFFECT: method enables clinical effectiveness by recovering the motor activity of the involved extremity and prolongs the remission, prevents the progression of the biomechanical and neurodystrophic disorders, and formation of neurological complications.
