FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: treating children with post-traumatic elbow contracture is ensured by daily massage of the upper extremity, applications of a heating agent on the joint area, electrophoresis of potassium iodide and lidase at a current density of 0.01-0.07 mA/cm2, for 5-15 minutes, and kinesitherapy. The applicator is Tereclit clay heated to 36-42°C and covering the elbow joint area and spastic muscles for 8-15 minutes. Thereafter, 30-40 minutes later, the clay therapy is followed by doing 10-15-minute long passive motions by means of a mechanotherapeutic device. The procedure length and number are specified on the basis of the child's age and initial functional health of the elbow joint.
EFFECT: painless recovery of the range of elbow motions and reduced length of treatment in the children suffering from post-traumatic elbow contractures.
