[Clinical assessment of infrasonic phonophoresis efficacy in the treatment of bacterial keratitis].
Therapeutic efficacy of infrasonic phonophoresis is studied in 30 patients with bacterial keratitis. Control group consisted of 87 patients with the same diagnosis. Clinical studies included comparative evaluation of the therapeutic efficacy of infrasonic phonophoresis and traditional local instillations of the same drugs. Before treatment, visual acuity was the same in both groups, while after regression of inflammation after treatment it was 0.13 higher in the phonophoresis group. Results of clinical studies indicate a higher efficacy of infrasonic therapy of patients with keratitis. The duration of therapy was decreased, number of bed-days decreased, and visual acuity after treatment improved.
