Surgical treatment of lung cancer is associated with a high risk of postoperative complications in cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Studied is the ability to prevent the postoperative complications in respiratory and cardiovascular system when exposed to ultra low frequency magnetic field in the given category of patients. To achieve this aim 126 patients, operated for lung cancer, have been exposed to ultra low frequency magnetotherapy on the brain occipital area during the early postoperative period. The Spectr-2 device for broad range magnetotherapy has served as an electromagnetic field source.Demonstrated is almost a two times decrease in a total number of postoperative complications as compared with the patients not subjected to the treatment. It has been established that using the electromagnetic nature factors leads to normalization in respiratory and cardiovascular activity and prevents development of many severe complications such as pulmonary embolism, acute myocardial infarction, disturbed cerebral circulation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
