Determination of the quantitative content of the amount of organic acids and ascorbic acid in different batches of Rosa majalis and Rosa canina raw material Rose hips are the pharmacopoeial raw material, and its roots have been widely used in folk medicine. Therefore, these roots attracted our attention. The chemical composition of roots of both Rosa species has been poorly studied. The data of literature sources show that roots contain phenolic compounds, organic acids and amino acids. Rose hips are standardized by the quantitative content of the amount of organic acids and ascorbic acid according to the State Pharmacopoeia of the USSR of the XI-th edition. According to the State Pharmacopoeia of Ukraine (SPhU) 2.0 this raw material is standardized by the quantitative content of ascorbic acid. Aim. To study the quantitative content of the amount of organic acids and ascorbic acid in different batches of samples of Rosa majalis and Rosa canina roots. Material and methods. Roots of Rosa majalis and Rosa canina collected in different regions of Ukraine during 2014-2016 were used for research. The quantitative content of the amount of organic acids was studied by the titration method. Ascorbic acid was determined by the spectrophotometric method. Results and discussion. As a result of studying the quantitative content of the amount of organic acids it was determined that the content of these substances in the raw material ranged from 3 % to 5 % in the roots of Rosa majalis and from 3 % to 4.5 % in the roots of Rosa canina. The content of ascorbic acid in roots of Rosa majalis and Rosa canina fluctuated insignificantly from 0.11 % to 0.13 %. Conclusions. For the first time the quantitative content of the amount of organic acids and ascorbic acid in Rosa majalis and Rosa canina roots collected during three years in seven different places has been determined. The results of our research show that further studying of Rosa majalis and Rosa canina roots is promising taking into account their possible areas of application.

The specialty "Physical therapy, ergotherapy" was chosen in almost equal gender ratio: women and men. Age category of students 17-21 years. Most enrolled after graduation, and a minority who had previously received specialized secondary education in medical schools and colleges. The most decisive in the choice of profession are the participants of the questioning called various factors. Priority factors most students consider "working conditions", the factor of higher education and prestige of the profession respectively; many respondents enjoy working with people, and the financial side (sallary) matters, more than half of respondents explained the choice of profession of physical therapist with insufficient number of qualified personnel in this field, slightly less than half of respondents chose a related profession with medical profession, and a minority entered the specialty on medical profession, parents' recommendation.

Rosa majalis is a widespread plant the fruits of which are used in scientific and folk medicine for their vitamin and anti-inflammatory activity. The roots, leaves and flowers are used in folk medicine only. We paid attention to the roots which have anti-inflammatory, bactericide and choleretic activity. They help to take out nephroliths and normalize the metabolic processes in the organism. The decoctions and infusions are used to treat diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, liver and kidneys and inflammatory diseases of the urogenital and locomotor systems (3,4). Although the roots have been widely used in folk medicine of different countries for a long time, their chemical content is poorly studied.

The purpose of the study was to substantiate theoretically the possibility of complex application of vacuum therapy and kinesiotherapy in elderly people with chronic wound healing. Materials and methods. The methodological approach was used in the study: an analysis of literary sources and Internet resources; analysis of advanced foreign and domestic experience, system analysis method, comparison method, organizational analysis. Results and discussion. Vacuum therapy of wounds is considered as an additional method of treatment in patients with chronic wounds and wounds that heal for a long time, which is especially important for the elderly people because of the slowed metabolism and reduced immunological resistance of the body. Vacuum therapy stimulates wound healing by using localized negative pressure on the surface of the wound, and helps to remove excess of exudate around and within the wound. Another method of physical therapy which has a positive effect on the processes of recovery or recuperation of motor function, reducing the risk of complications (thromboembolism, respiratory diseases, pressure ulcers, contractures) and maintaining the patient's overall physical ability is kinesiotherapy. Kinesiotherapy, the main meaning of which is physical exercise, is aimed at improving aerobic performance, muscle performance of strength and endurance, stretching and lengthening of muscles, mechanisms of neuro-muscular control of inhibition and excitation. Any exercise activates not only the musculoskeletal system, but also all body systems, including nervous, hormonal, immune, which significantly accelerates the healing process. The main meaning of physical exercise, along with the use of vacuum therapy, is the dosed performance of physical activity with a healthy limb or a segment of the body to improve trophicity in tissues to achieve a general tonic and trophic effect caused by physical exercise for a faster resorption of inflammation products, preventing the appearance of hyperproliferative processes in wounds. Conclusion. It was theoretically substantiated that the combined use of negative pressure therapy and kinesiotherapy can lead to a reduction in the time of complete wound healing and a decrease in the time of temporary disability / inability to self-care, as well as contribute to an earlier restoration of daily activity. Exercise for the elderly may include: aerobic exercise to improve endurance and recovery; body mechanics training; breathing exercises for the prevention of congestion in the lungs; exercises to develop coordination of movements; self-care skills training; ideomotor exercises; perception training; exercises for the amplitude of movements and stretching of soft tissues; relaxation exercises; exercises for general strengthening, strength and endurance

Запропоновано фітозбір на основі коренів шипшини для лікування функціональних порушень серцевосудинної системи, застосування якого покращувало показники судинного тонусу та серцевої діяльності у студентів спеціальної групи з фізичної культури, які знаходилися на обліку з діагнозами вегетосудинна та нейроциркуляторна дистонії. Ключові слова: серцево-судинні захворювання; фітозбір; артеріальний тиск ВСТУП Хвороби серцево-судинної системи (CCC) за даними ВООЗнайбільш поширена група захворювань. В останні роки спостерігається збільшення кількості захворювань серця (неревматичні кардіоміопатії, інфекційно-алергічні міокардити, порушення регуляції судинного тонусу та інші) серед пацієнтів молодого віку, студентів тощо. Специфіка найбільш розповсюджених захворювань визначає принципи ефективного використання засобів фізичної культури. При захворюваннях, що ушкоджують серцевий м'яз, який на тривалий період після хвороби залишається «слабкою ланкою» ССС і всього організму, необхідно використовувати засоби і методи фізичної культури таким чином, щоб, не рахуючи величину навантажень на незачеплені ланки системи кровообігу, забезпечити на перших етапах процесу фізичного виховання відносне послаблення ступеня функціонального навантаження на серце. Активний руховий режим в тому обсязі, який дозволяє резервна здатність серцевого м'язу, забезпечує підвищення опірності організму [5]. Для лікування захворювань ССС широко застосовуються препарати, виготовлені на основі лікарських рослин-Кордевіт, Кратал, Кардіофіт та ін. В результаті вивчення даних літератури та власних досліджень ми запропонували склад оригінального фітозбору з п'яти компонентів: шипшини кореня, глоду квіток з листям, меліси трави, кропиви собачої трави, підмаренника трави [1, 4, 6]. Мета полягала у вивченні впливу застосування фітозбору на показники серцево-судинної системи у студентів з різним станом здоров'я.
