  • Title: [Changes in the bronchial tree under the influence of pelotherapy in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis].
    Author: Strelis AK, Zhivotiagina NA, Kuz'michev MA.
    Journal: Probl Tuberk; 1989; (9):16-8. PubMed ID: 2587542.
    Abstract:
    It was shown with using the clinical materials relating to 400 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis that peloids such as humisole, torfot and peloidin used in combination with antituberculous drugs had a favourable effect on involution of specific and nonspecific processes in the bronchi and restoration of bronchial patency. This also permitted a decrease in the terms for elimination of inflammatory lesions in the tracheobronchial tree. Phonophoresis with peloidin proved to be the most efficient procedure of pelotherapy since its use provided summation of the therapeutic effects of the mud preparation and ultrasound vibrations as well as local action on the affected organ.
