[Artificial mountain climate in therapy and rehabilitation of patients with chronic nonspecific pulmonary diseases].
Therapeutic efficiency of artificial Alpine climate was studied in a group of 318 patients with chronic nonspecific pulmonary diseases (CNDP). The Alpine climate was modelled on device "Orotron". The base, progradient and prolonged regimes of therapy by artificial Alpine climate (orhotherapy) were used in work. It is shown that application of optimal conditions of orhotherapy promotes normalization of the external respiration function in patients with CNPD due to a decrease in expression of broncho-obstructive and bronchitic syndromes and in nonuniformity of regional ventilation of lungs. Therapy by artificial Alpine climate is recommended to be used in wide clinical practice for treatment and rehabilitation of patients with CNDP.
