[Respiratory function rehabilitation: a component of treatment for tuberculosis].
The present views of pathophysiological processes in tuberculosis make it necessary not only to suppress the vital activity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, but also to restore biophysical immune and other protective functions of an organism. The acutely progressive forms of tuberculosis isolating drug-resistant mycobacteria require that the exposure techniques improving circulation and metabolic and bioenergetic processes in the cellular and tissue structures at the site of a specific tuberculous process be compulsorily included. Rehabilitative measures considerably accelerate reparative processes, enhance the efficiency of standard chemotherapy regimens, and attend respiratory function recovery in tuberculosis and associated bronchopulmonary diseases. When in a day hospital, as many as 50% of the patients first registered may be examined and receive efficient standard chemotherapy in combination with rehabilitative measures.
