[Treatment of patients with neurologic syndromes of cervical osteochondrosis by electrophoresis of papaverine and nicotinic acid using sinusoidally-modulated and diadynamic currents].
The authors describe the time course of some biochemical and hemodynamic parameters in patients suffering from cervical osteochondrosis with neurological symptoms treated by electrophoresis of papaverine and nicotinic acid with sinusoidal modulated and diadynamic currents. Under treatment there were 124 patients aged 16 to 76 years. The electrophoresis was performed by the method developed by the authors. All the patients showed a reduction of the prothrombine, cholesterol and beta-lipoproteid levels and a rise of the lecithine-cholesterol index. This pointed to a favourable effect of the treatment on lipid metabolism. An improvement of some central hemodynamic parameters and of peripheral circulation in the zone of the forearms was also noted.
