[Clinical picture of vibration disease caused by an overall low-frequency jerky vibration and problems involved in sanatorium treatment]. 1979

A A El'garov

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.

D011115	Polyneuropathies	Diseases of multiple peripheral nerves simultaneously. Polyneuropathies usually are characterized by symmetrical, bilateral distal motor and sensory impairment with a graded increase in severity distally. The pathological processes affecting peripheral nerves include degeneration of the axon, myelin or both. The various forms of polyneuropathy are categorized by the type of nerve affected (e.g., sensory, motor, or autonomic), by the distribution of nerve injury (e.g., distal vs. proximal), by nerve component primarily affected (e.g., demyelinating vs. axonal), by etiology, or by pattern of inheritance.

D011843	Radiculopathy	Disease involving a spinal nerve root (see SPINAL NERVE ROOTS) which may result from compression related to INTERVERTEBRAL DISK DISPLACEMENT; SPINAL CORD INJURIES; SPINAL DISEASES; and other conditions. Clinical manifestations include radicular pain, weakness, and sensory loss referable to structures innervated by the involved nerve root.
