The Levels of Functional-Vegetative Homeostasis as Criteria for Magnetotherapy Efficacy

Abstract

Background. Disorders of autonomic nervous system caused up to 80% of functional disorders. There is no information about the influence of magnetotherapy (MT) on the indicators of vegetative homeostasis, which disturbance is a cause of functional pathology.Objectives. The aim of the study is to investigate vegetative rehabilitation trend of MT in various initial conditions of functional-vegetative disorders.Methods. Functional-vegetative diagnostics method by V.G. Makats was chosen as a method of control of MT impact. The diagnostic complex BIOTEST-12M was a technical tool. 38 children of different age and gender treated in the Department of Physiotherapy of Vinnytsia Regional Children Clinical Hospital in 2016-2017 were involved in the research. The patients were divided into 7 groups according to the levels of functional vegetative homeostasis.Results. MT had a different effect on vegetative activity as well as systemic and functional dependence, according to the coefficient of functional vegetative homeostasis. The most positive effect was evidenced in a group with a significant parasympathicotonia (group 1). In the group with severe sympathicotonia (group 6) it had negative effect. There were no gender and age-related characteristic features of the influence of MT on the dispersion of vegetative levels.Conclusions. Rehabilitation expediency requires maintenance of functional vegetative homeostasis at the level of FcP-VB-FcS in conjunction with functional-vegetative diagnostics using the method of V.G. Makats. Magnetotherapy can be recommended to be used only for patients with significant and expressed parasym­pathicotonia.

Case report: Individualized pulsed electromagnetic field therapy in a Long COVID patient using the Adaptive Force as biomarker

“…Animal studies support the hypothesis that PEMF can be useful in therapy ( 27 – 30 ), e.g., in cardiac diseases ( 27 , 30 , 31 ). In humans, PEMF could normalize dysautonomia in children ( 32 , 33 ) and was found to be effective to treat neuropathic/postsurgical pain and edema as well as several other indications ( 34 – 37 ). PEMF acupuncture of BL15 (bladder meridian and paravertebral T5) was found to activate the parasympathetic nervous system ( 38 ).…”

The Method of Medical-Ecological Monitoring of Public Health and Environmentally Hazardous Areas

“…The health of the children's population more objectively reflects the ecological changes of the territory, since children have neither occupational illnesses nor bad habits, they are fed by higher quality food, which allows to obtain more accurate information directly about the environmental impacts on the health of the population. Therefore, the study of the functional health of the children's population with the further analysis of medical and environmental impacts of the environment is an extremely urgent task [15,16].…”
