[New principles in the assessment of body functional status during sanatorium treatment].
151 children aged 6-14 years received sanatorium treatment in Gelenzhik. The children were examined clinically before and after the treatment with estimation of nonspecific adaptation of the organism (NSAO) by L. Kh. Garkavi et al (1990) and adrenoreactivity by beta-adrenoreception of erythrocytes (b-ARE) using ARM-AGAT kits (Agat-Med., Moscow). The highest percent of favourable NSAO was seen in children with initially high adrenoreactivity. In children with subnormal adrenoreactivity it was 3-7 times less. Sanatorium treatment reduced b-ARE and improved NSAO in most of the children. In children with initially high adrenoreactivity (b-ARE 4-12 r.u.) who had had acute respiratory viral infection or tonsillitis, unfavourable NSAO number was higher. The trends in b-ARE and NSAO suggest the necessity of these indices evaluation for individual choice of sanatorium treatment and monitoring of its efficiency.
