description | Purpose of the study. Pain is the main complaint of patients with musculoskeletal pathology, the treatment of which by pharmacological methods has significant side effects. Therefore, non-drug treatment, especially physiotherapy, is increasingly being considered as a first-line treatment option. We evaluated the effectiveness of treatment of pain syndrome in complex use of Shock Wave (SW) and High-Tone Power (HiToP) physiotherapy in patients with musculoskeletal pathology.
Methods. We examined 72 patients (mean age 57.6 ± 0.8 years) with musculoskeletal pathology. The course of SW on the affected area is up to 5-6 procedures with an interval between sessions of 3-7 days. The duration of HiToP therapy ranged from 8 to 10 procedures (3-5 sessions per week). Evaluation of the effectiveness of combined physiotherapy was performed according to the Visual - Analog Scale (VAS) and Short Form Health Survey questionnaire (SF-36).
Results. After a course of combined SW and HiToP physiotherapy all patients with musculoskeletal pathology showed positive dynamics in the pain syndrome. At the same time, according to the visual - analog scale of VAS, there was a significant decrease in pain intensity by an average of 35.8% (p <0.05) compared to baseline before treatment. A probable improvement in the quality of life of patients (SF-36 questionnaire) on the scales of both physical and mental functioning was achieved.
Conclusion. The combined use of SW and HiToP physiotherapy has a positive effect on pain and quality of life in 91.7% of patients with pathology of the musculoskeletal system. |
