    Author: El'garov AA.
    Journal: Zh Nevropatol Psikhiatr Im S S Korsakova; 1979; 79(8):1035-40. PubMed ID: 484137.
    Abstract:
    On the basis of complex clinico-physiological examinations of 102 patients suffering from vibration disease caused by general low-frequency push-type vibration the following leading symptomocomplexes were determined: vegetative polyneuritis (53%), peripheral polyneuritis (20.5%), cerebral polyneuritis (13.7%), angiodystonic syndromes and lumbosacral radiculitis (12.7%). The patients were treated with two balneopelotherapeutic complexes, such as nitrogen thermal and bromoiodine baths plus mud applications. The dynamics of the disease symptoms and of the results of additional instrumental examinations has demonstrated the efficacy of the balneopelotherapy given in sanatorium conditions, this efficacy being dependent on the disease stage, prevailing syndrome, and the therapeutic complex used.
