INFLUENCE OF NEURO-LIKE DYNAMIC ELECTRICAL STIMULATION ON NEURAL CONDUCTIVITY AND BASAL MICROCIRCULATION IN PATIENTS WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS WITH PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY

Abstract

The results of the study of the electric pulse therapy effect on the state of neural conductivity and microvasculature in 60 patients with moderate type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2), accompanied by the peripheral sensory neuropathy, are presented. A comparative double-blind, placebo-controlled study of the inclusion of neuro-like dynamic electrical stimulation in the rehabilitation course was carried out. By the end of the rehabilitation course, the patients of the experimental group showed an increase in the velocity of excitation propagation along the tibial and peroneal nerves, restoration of the impaired spontaneous activity of deafferentated central neurons at the spinal and cerebral levels, and an improvement of basal microcirculation indices.
