title: [The dynamics of microcirculation parameters in patients with pneumonia receiving intravenous irradiation of blood as a part of complex treatment].
abstract: The aim of the study was to evaluate the condition of the microcirculatation under the influence of low-intensity laser irradiation as a part of complex treatment of patients with pneumonia. The subjects were 62 patients with pneumonia divided into two groups. The 30 patients of the control group received only conventional medication therapy, while the 32 patients of the main group received a course of laser irradiation of blood (LIB) in addition to conventional medication. Positive dynamics in microcirculation was more prominent in the main group. In conclusion, LIB may be considered to be an effective method to correct microcirculatory disturbances in patients with pneumonia.
