OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of weather and climatic factors of the South Coast of Crimea (SCC) on the effectiveness of health resort medical rehabilitation (MR) of patients with arterial hypertension (AH). MATERIAL AND METHODS: One hundred and thirty-four patients with AH were examined. The effect of weather and climatic factors of the SCC was assessed using the methods of Modified Clinical Weather Pathogenicity Index (CWPI-M, developed at the I.M. Sechenov Institute) and assessment of medical rehabilitation according to International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) criteria. RESULTS: The regression equations for the change of ICF domains b2401, b420, b4301, b4552, d240 and the change of mean values of all domains depending on air temperature and humidity, wind velocity, amount of clouds, variability of air temperature, and atmospheric pressure were developed. The equations permit the generation of reliable rehabilitation prognosis for patients with AH for all terms of health resort care at the SCC. CONCLUSIONS: The use of CWPI-M makes it possible to form a rehabilitation prognosis for patients with AH based on certain ICF domains. The best rehabilitation prognosis for the SCC resorts is for the warm period of the year.

Course effectiveness was studied in combined use of medicamentous, physiotherapeutic factors training loads in 210 patients with ischemic heart disease and arterial hypertension, presenting with concurrent cerebral vascular disorders. The complex above was shown to have a beneficial effect on time course of cardiac and cerebral symptoms, state of hemodynamics, physical fitness, metabolic processes, and coagulating properties of blood.

The efficiency of combined use of the disaggregant aspirin and electroplate current on the precordial area was studied in 230 patients with coronary heart disease concurrent with cerebral disorders. The procedure was shown to have a positive action on the time course of clinical symptoms, the status of central hemodynamics, physical fitness, and psychoemotional status of the patients.

The efficacy of physiotherapeutic methods in association with preliminary aspirin intakes was examined in 276 patients with ischemic heart disease. Results indicate that the main clinicofunctional and laboratory indices showed a positive dynamics. The above treatment is considered perspective in the restorative treatment and secondary prophylaxis of patients with ischemic heart disease.
