Examination covered 92 patients with varying severity of vibration disease, 58 of which received extracorporeal shock-wave therapy with Piezo Wave device produced by Richard Wolf in addition to traditional treatment. The treatment efficiency was evaluated through its influence on intensity and regression of pain syndrome. Comparative analysis showed that extracorporeal shockwave therapy in the treatment complex considerably increases efficiency and leads to earlier and more stable regression of pain in distal parts of hands. Two variants of chronic pain response to extracorporeal shock-wave therapy were revealed. Marked analgetic potential, good tolerance and stability of the results obtained enable to recommend extracorporeal shock-wave therapy in rehabilitation complex for vibration disease patients.Read More
