Abstract
Back pain is one of the most urgent problems of rehabilitation. Patients with this pathology have a leading place among neurological patients in terms of the number of days of disability. The high economic costs in society are explained by the need for lumbar surgery (discectomy, spinal fusion and disc prosthesis) and rehabilitation after it. The effectiveness of rehabilitative measures is determined both by the patient's rehabilitative potential and by the choice of rehabilitative methods.
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of physiotherapy in patients with degenerative disk diseases from positions of evidence-based medicine according to the scientific and technical literature.
Material and methods: The analysis of scientific and technical literature sources and the study of materials of meta-analyses, systematic reviews (depth of search was 20 years) on the evaluation of effectiveness of physiotherapeutical methods in the rehabilitation of patients with degenerative disk diseases have been conducted.
Results: The ability of pulsed magnetic field to reduce the intensity of pain and improve the functional capacities of the spine in patients with low back pain has been identified. There was a pronounced analgesic end-point of low-level laser therapy in acute and chronic back pain at short and medium-term (up to 12 months) observation, as well as the ability of the method to reduce temporary disability in degenerative disk diseases.
Conclusion: The use of magnetotherapy and low-level laser therapy can be recommended for the treatment of patients with degenerative disk diseases (C grade of recommendations, 3rd level of evidence). The recommendation is based on the results of 10 RCTs (1.111 patients with degenerative disk diseases), 3 meta-analyses, 1 systematic review and 1 Cochrane review (a total of 3.431 patients).
期刊介绍:
The journal deals with the study of the mechanism of a physiological and therapeutic effect of physical and health resort factors, methods and results of their employment, as well as with theoretical and practical problems involved in the use of exercise therapy in combined treatment of different diseases. The results of research and experience of using physical and health resort methods in medical practice and organization of physiotherapeutic and sanatorial and health resort service, book reviews on physiotherapy, health resort science and exercise therapy are published. Scientific life of allied specialities, proceedings of congresses, conferences, symposia (including foreign), the activity of republican and local societies, etc., are covered.
