СТАБИЛИЗАЦИЯ ПОКАЗАТЕЛЕЙ КАРДИОЛОГИЧЕСКОГО СТАТУСА ПЕРЕБОЛЕВШИХ COVID-19 ПРИ ПРИМЕНЕНИИ КВЧ-ТЕРАПИИ

Abstract

Introduction. Currently, non-drug methods of correction of impaired body functions are becoming increasingly important. Especially intensive research is being conducted on biological effects associated with the effects of electromagnetic radiation on living organisms. Aim. The aim of the study is to study the possible facilitating effect of extremely high-frequency therapy in recovery after physical exertion of COVID–19 patients. Material and methods. The research was conducted on volunteer students of the 1st and 2nd year of KSMU. Control groups of girls and boys were formed, as well as groups of COVID-19 patients. Extremely high-frequency radiation treatment of the C5 point on the anteromedial (inner-elbow) side of the forearm was performed, which is used in the treatment of a number of heart diseases by acupuncture. During the study, the blood pressure and heart rate of the subject were first measured using a standard tonometer – without load (control) and after 20 squats of the subject. After that, the extremely high- frequency emitter was brought to the indicated area of the forearm, and 3–minute therapy was performed. Then the blood pressure and heart rate of the subject were measured again. Alternative series were also carried out, with measurement without extremely high-frequency treatment. The comparison of the average values of the samples was carried out on the basis of the Student’s t-test. Results and discussion. It was found that in non-COVID-19 patients, the extremely high-frequency therapy performed did not significantly change the parameters of blood pressure and heart rate in the groups of boys and girls. In young men who have been ill with COVID-19, there is a tendency to earlier recovery after physical exertion when using extremely high-frequency therapy. Extremely high-frequency therapy had a greater impact on girls who had had COVID-19 than on those who had not had this disease. At the same time, this group of subjects clearly has a vector for a more complete recovery after physical exertion for all the studied indicators. However, only systolic pressure was significantly equalized (p<0.05). Conclusion. The stabilizing effect of extremely high-frequency therapy on systolic blood pressure values in COVID-19 girls was revealed.
