[Cryoelectrotherapy in the treatment of osteoarthrosis patients].
Coxarthritis and gonarthritis patients (n = 105) were divided into 3 groups. Group I patients received cryotherapy (CT), group II subjects were exposed to sinusoidal modulated currents (SMC), group III patients underwent multimodality treatment (cryoelectrotherapy). The most pronounced response for CT was achieved in gonarthritis with reactive synovitis. Overall effectiveness was the highest in cryoelectrotherapy. This may be due to potentiating effect of the cold and low-frequency currents combination.
