Physiotherapy complex of the treatment of children with somatoform dysfunction and frequent recurrent diseases

Abstract

Assessment of index parameters of vegetative status, vegetative tonus, vegetative reactivity in children with somatoform dysfunction syndrome of the autonomic nervous system (SDSANS), who often suffer from recurrent respiratory viral diseases, in the dynamics of the use of a physiotherapeutic complex, including BioAcoustic methods of treatment of biofeedback, overvenous laser exposure and impact to projection zones of the thymus. 111 children 7-12 years old (mean age 10.8±0.9 years) with a verified diagnosis of SDSANS were examined. The observation period was 3-4 years. As an initial- and endpoints the cardiovascular, autonomic, immune and clinical and instrumental criteria of recurrent viral infection were taken. Physiotherapeutic treatment in the form of the developed complex was carried out in the main group (laser therapy + biofeedback) and two comparison groups (group 1 - laser therapy, group 2 - biofeedback), in the control group, patients received drug therapy without physical factors. After the applying of complex therapy, a more significant positive dynamics was established both on the part of ECG parameters (normalization of the T wave, QRS and PQ complex) and on the part of vegetative parameters, which indicates a high cardiotrophic support of the developed complex, which helps to reduce the level of cardiovascular complaints of 75.2±5.2%. The developed physiotherapeutic complex, including overvenous laser exposure, laser impact to the projection zones of the thymus and BioAcoustic treatment complex of biofeddback, can be considered as a physioprophylactic and therapeutic model of recurrent respiratory viral pathology in children with SDSANS.
