EFFICIENCY OF MODERN NON-MEDICATION REHABILITATION METHODS OF PRESCHOOL CHILDREN OFTEN SUFFERING FROM SEVERE ACUTE RESPIRATORY SYNDROME

Aim: To assess the comparative effectiveness of modern non-medication rehabilitation arrangements (transcranial electric stimulation, quantum therapy, speleoclimatotherapy) in 5-7 year-olds, often suffering from SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) for both individual rehabilitation and rehabilitation with the mother. Material and methods. 445 children (280 children rehabilitated individually, 120 children rehabilitated together with their mothers, 45 children made up the control group) were examined using clinical, immunological and functional diagnosis. Results: In non-medication rehabilitation the rates of local immunity of upper respiratory tract mucosa (lysozym, secretory immunoglobulin) and phagocytizing activity of neutrophils definitely increased. Positive dynamics of children's and their mothers' emotional state has been recorded (anxiety level reduction). Comparative effectiveness of individual and joint rehabilitation of a child and a mother has been assessed. Conclusion: In joint rehabilitation of a mother and a child morbidity level decreased by 2,1 times, whereas in individual rehabilitation this ratio decreased by 1,5 times (р<0,01).
