[The evaluation of the quality of life as a criterion of the efficiency of rehabilitating treatment in rheumatoid arthritis].
Under observation there were 120 patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), which were divided into basic (n = 80) and control group matched by gender, age and duration of the disease. The all patients received the similar drug and physiotherapeutic treatment. Furthermore additional sessions of structural resonance electromagnetic therapy (SREMT were performed) in patients from basic group. The comparative studies showed significant benefit of inclusion of SREMT in complex management of RA patients. The wide spectrum of therapeutic action of SREMT has positive influence on basic parameters of the quality of life of RA patients: the general indices of physical and role physical functioning, somatic pain, overall health, social and role emotional functioning. SREMT may be recommended for using in rheumatologic clinic as a method of increasing the efficacy of conducted treatment and therapeutic and rehabilitation measures in RA.
