Comparative analysis of the effectiveness of different methods of physical therapy including hydrokinesitherapy and therapeutic gymnastics with the use of exercises on an unstable support (stabiloplatform) was made for a group of 72 patients suffering from pain in the spine of vertebrogenic genesis who had repeatedly received standard medical therapy, physiotherapy (magnetotherapy, laser therapy), and massage therapy before the onset of the study. The effectiveness of therapy was assessed based on the VAS scale, using the Schober’s test, Tomaier test, and Ott test as well as the summary index of health status. The pain intensity estimated based on the VAS scale was significantly reduced in all the patients after the completion of the treatment. Especially good results were obtained for the group of men making exercises on the stabiloplatform and in the group of women given hydrokinesitherapy in the water pool. The results of the present study of the psychoemotional state, vertebroneurological status, and spinal pain intensity in the patients presenting with dorsopathies lead to the conclusion that men and women respond differently to the rehabilitative treatment with the use of the static and dynamic methods of physical therapy.
Background. Early rehabilitation of patients after removal of neoplasms is an urgent task of modern rehabilitation. Clinical case description. This clinical example describes an example of rehabilitation and dynamics of recovery in a patient after removal of glioblastoma. After removal of a malignant neoplasm of the central nervous system, the patient underwent a course of rehabilitation measures within the framework of hospitalization at the Federal Research Center for Clinical Center of the Russian Federation. Conclusion. Patients after removal of malignant neoplasms are shown early active rehabilitation in order to compensate for neurological and mental deficits after removal of neoplasms of the central nervous system.
