研究目的
The purpose of this study is to search for alternative methods of effective pain relief for acute and persistent pain syndrome in elderly patients with osteoporotic compressive fractures of the vertebrae.
研究成果
The laser phoresis method with the use of the Giasulf gel is safe and effective for elderly patients with osteoporotic compressive fractures of vertebrae. It provides significant pain relief, reduces the need for systematic analgesics, and improves motor activity. The method has potential positive systematic effects and can be considered for rehabilitation treatment.
研究不足
The study was limited to elderly patients with specific conditions, excluding those with cancer diseases, skin diseases, and age-related mental disorders. The sample size was relatively small (29 patients), and the study focused on short-term effects.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study used laser phoresis with the ionized gel 'Giasulf' for pain relief in patients with osteoporotic fractures. The method combined the application of the gel with low-intensity laser radiation to enhance therapeutic effects.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
29 patients aged between 58 and 82 years with pain syndrome due to compressive fractures of lower thoracic and lumbar vertebrae were selected. Selection criteria included radiographically verified fractures associated with osteoporosis.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The ALSTAT apparatus for ionization of the gel and a semiconductor laser for irradiation were used.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The gel was ionized and applied to the spine, followed by laser irradiation using stable contact and scanning methods. The treatment course consisted of 7 procedures.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Pain intensity was measured using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) before and after treatment. Tolerability was assessed through patient and doctor estimations.
