ABSTRACT
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Evaluation of the effectiveness of sanatorium-and-spa treatment of patients who have undergone a new coronavirus infection (COVID-19), taking into account the polymorphism of symptom complexes. MATERIAL AND METHODS:
The study included 56 patients (22 men, 34 women; mean age 64.9±8.21 and 64.76±9.12 years, respectively) who had COVID-19 and were treated at a spa. The mandatory program of rehabilitation and rehabilitation sanatorium treatment included exercise therapy with elements of breathing exercises, general massage with an emphasis on the chest, halo and speleotherapy, hydrotherapy, inhalations, as well as psychotherapeutic methods. The length of stay in the sanatorium was at least 2 weeks. We assessed the dynamics of indicators characterizing the activity of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems (BP, heart rate, Stange test), exercise tolerance (6-minute walk test), as well as psycho-emotional state (test «Health, Activity, Mood¼, SAN) up to and after treatment.RESULTS:
Against the background of sanatorium-and-spa treatment in patients who underwent COVID-19, the number of complaints significantly decreased in men from 6.2±2.4 to 3.4±1.3, in women from 7.7±1.5 to 4.12±1.5 (p≤0.05). A similar dynamics of indicators characterizing the activity of the cardiovascular system was noted the level of systolic blood pressure in men decreased by 7.3%, in women - by 10.3%; the level of diastolic blood pressure - by 4.1 and 1.4%, respectively. Heart rate in men decreased from 83.69±15.2 to 75.54±12.24 beats/min; in women - from 92.16±14.16 to 76.4±11.68 beats/min. The distance traveled for men (6-minute walk test) increased from 384.15±108.78 to 408.92±97.30 m; in women - from 371.84±75.9 to 397.12±76.2 m (p≤0.05). The breath holding time on inspiration (Stange test) in men increased from 38.00±10.64 to 45.69±9.51 s; in women - from 39.96±9.31 to 43.60±6.93 s. The values of the «Well-being¼ indicator (SAN test) in men significantly increased - from 4.5±1.8 to 5.1±0.9 points (p≤0.05); «Activity¼ - from 4.8±0.8 to 5.4±0.5 points (p≤0.05); «Mood¼ - from 4.7±1.4 to 5.4±0.6 points. Similar dynamics were observed in women.CONCLUSION:
Against the background of the sanatorium stage of treatment, a stable positive dynamics of the indicators of the functional state of the body was noted in both men and women. The analysis carried out confirms the need to develop and implement rehabilitation programs in sanatorium-resort conditions for patients who have had a new coronavirus infection.Keywords
