Abstract
The article presents the results of the application of photochemotherapy for the combined rehabilitation treatment of the patients suffering from bronchial asthma. The assessment of the effectiveness and the impact of this treatment was made on the basis of changes of the indicators of blood rheology as one of the components of pathogenesis of this disease with due regard for the signs and symptoms characterizing the clinical course of this condition. It has been demonstrated that 74 patients presenting with bronchial asthma experienced the statistically significant restoration of the altered rheological parameters of blood and the general improvement of the clinical course of the disease under the influence of photochemotherapy in comparison with the results of the baseline treatment obtained in the remaining 42 patients. The effect of optical radiation of blue and red light on the clinical course of bronchial asthma was more pronounced than that of the conventional treatment. The two therapeutic modalities were virtually identical when evaluated based on the effectiveness criteria, but differed in terms of the mechanism of action on the body.
