[Use of helium-neon laser device LTM-01 in the treatment of patients with chronic suppurative otitis media].
The all-purpose small-sized portable helium-neon laser unit LTM-I has been tested in a clinic. The unit is constructed on the basis of a quantum generator of 0.5-1.0 mW with a wave length of 632.8 nm. The unit is provided with special appliances allowing emission to be brought to the external auditory passage and the tympanic cavity. The unit was used to treat 110 patients with chronic purulent middle otitis. Exposure lasted 10-12 min. The treatment course consisted of 7-12 sessions. The favourable effect was noted by the 6-7th day of treatment in 52 patients with chronic purulent mesotympanitis with a protracted torpid course. Improvement of the cytological picture, disappearance of the microbial flora, normalization of immunological indices made it possible to arrive at a conclusion on the existence of a certain adaptogenic mechanism of action of laser emission.
