ABSTRACT
Extremely high frequency (EHF) radiation was performed in 95 outpatients with duodenal ulcer. Individual choice of the exposure site can improve the treatment results. The syndrome-oriented approach of the Chinese conventional medicine warrants an effective choice of the acupuncture loci and the prognosis of the outcome. A clinical syndrome was identified in which healing of the ulcer was achieved on week two of the treatment in 92.3 +/- 7.7% of the patients. It is suggested that EHF therapy provides positive responses in case of a valid exposure zone selection, the frequency being less important.

The authors review a mathematic model of the respiratory biomechanics during artificial lung ventilation, presenting a subsystem of the mathematic model of respiration designed at the All-Union Research Surgery Center of the USSR AMS and used in the medical information diagnostic system elaborated for the Department of Resuscitation and Intensive Care, provide differential equations of the mathematic model, the results of the numerical solution of the model and an example of using the model for solving a private problem of selecting an adequate mode of artificial lung ventilation.

The article analyses arrhythmias recorded in the hospital period in patients with various disorders of atrioventricular conduction in continous asynchronous stimulation of the heart. The frequency with which the competitive rhythm occurred in implantation of 134 asynchronous cardiostimulants was 11.9%. Mortality from its development was 18.8%. The authors believe unjustified widening of the scope of indications for asynchronous stimulation of the heart to be one of the main causes of parasystole. Strict adherence to these indications in conducive to marked decrease in the incidence of this complication but does not rule it out completely. Implantation of biocontrolled cardiostimulants, in cases with corresponding indications, is the optimum method for the prevention of competitive rhythm.

An analysis of pulses from an implanted cardiostimulator recorded from the surface of the patient's body is one of the methods permitting it to pass judgment as to its functioning. Because of the possibility of the recording electrodes location coinciding with the equipotential line an erroneous interpretation of the cardiostimulator's condition is not to be ruled out. It is recommended that the pulses should be recorded with their subsequent analysis in no less than 2 standard ECG leads from the limbs.
