title: [Effect of artificial mountain air on the immune system state of immunosuppressed orthopedic and traumatologic patients].
abstract: The artificial mountain air influence on immunity indices of orthopedic and traumatologic patients with immunodepression was studied. The positive effect of interrupted normobaric hypoxitherapy on the immune state of patients was shown by means of increase of stromal elements of bone marrow, developing microsurroundings for maturation of immunocompetent cells. It was suggested to apply orotherapy in the preoperative preparation complex of orthopedic and traumatologic patients with immunodepression.
