title: [Use of electroacupuncture in the treatment of vibration diseases].
abstract: Vibration is known to adversely affect the nervous, cardiovascular and muscular systems, which feature is most liable to lead to decrement of performance. Employed in former times in dealing with the above affections was a complex medicamentous mode of treatment involving the use of vasoactive agents, sympatho- and cholinolytics, neuroplegic agents, physiotherapeutic and sanatorium-and-health resort methods, and other therapeutic modalities. There has been studied efficiency of use of electroacupuncture versus a complex medicamentous therapy in patients presenting with vibration disease. Methods are described for management of patients with acupuncture procedures. With reflexotherapy techniques, electroacupuncture in particular, it takes less time for the clinical-and-physiological indices to return to normal and for the patients to recover their strength after the illness. Electroacupuncture can be recommended for treating vibration disease in an outpatient, in-patient, and sanatorium-and-health resort setting. The above method permits the treatment time to be reduced by 20%, which fact has a major economic effect.
