摘要
前言:浴疗理疗为复杂的治疗干预。氯疗水疗为广泛使用的治疗方法,尤其是在肌肉骨骼疾病方面,该形式治疗在临床评估中观察到可带来许多健康益处。使用氯水的浴疗理疗影响下产生的代谢变化评估产生许多解释性的困难,并引起许多争议。
研究目的:研究目的在评估接受综合水疗的患者的血红蛋白水平变化及来自镭水的小剂量电离辐射作用。
材料及方法:观察范围包括接受21天疗养院综合水疗的患者,期间使用治疗用镭水、泥炭疗法(矿泥疗法)、理疗及运动疗法等,在水疗中心18天治疗前后检查血红蛋白的水平。试验组为n=35名因退行性疾病及椎间盘病所引起的外周关节及脊柱关节疼痛病患,患者年龄在47-63岁间,受试患者的平均年龄为56.5岁,受试者中有24名女性及11名男性。对照组由15人组成,其中有9名女性及6名男性,年龄在50至62岁之间,平均年龄为54.2岁。两组皆具相同的纳入和排除标准及相同的试验程序。
结果:在所进行的试验中,无论是受试组或对照组皆未发现血红蛋白水平在统计学上的显著变化,两组间的结果比较也未显示出统计学上的显著差异。
结论:
1. 使用矿泥疗法、理疗、运动疗法及来自镭水的小剂量电离辐射等的综合水疗不会影响血红蛋白的浓度变化。
2. 建议以更多的人口数量为基础进行进一步试验,并分别使用单独的水疗疗法。

Abstract

Introduction Beneficial therapeutic results can be achieved by the use of exercise therapy, kinesiotherapy and low doses of ionizing radiation. Such treatment decreases pain, increases physical capacity and fitness, and stimulates the immune system. An increase in the antioxidant capacity of the body is also one of the positive changes.
Aim This research aimed to evaluate the effect of spa treatment on the antioxidant capacity of the body.
Materials and methods Research was comprised of 120 patients suffering from osteoarthritis of the limbs and spine. The first group were treated in the Przerzeczyn-Zdroj spa, and therapy lasted 21 days. Total Antioxidant Status (TAS) was measured prior to therapy and after 18 days of treatment. The trials were non-randomized, and 85 subjects were evaluated. Group B, assessed in Świeradów, was comprised of 34 patients. The subjects underwent comprehensive therapy with the use of medicinal radon and radon-sulphide water. The results were statistically analyzed.
Results The research confirmed the body’s sensitivity to antioxidant capacity when undergoing spa therapy. There was an increase in values of TAS concentration in both groups.
Conclusions Research proved the beneficial influence of spa therapy on the total increase of the antioxidant capacity of the body.
2. Changes in TAS concentration observed in the examined groups led to the conclusion that the changes resulted from comprehensive spa treatment.

J. Kuciel-Lewandowska, M. Paprocka-Borowicz, W. Laber, M. Kowal, K. Szarejko, K. Aleksandrowicz – Assessment of the level of anxiety, depression and pain intensity in patients with osteoarthritis of the limbs through spa treatment. FP 2016;16(2);64-72

Abstract
Introduction. Chronic pain as a consequence of osteoarthritis of the limbs  is one of the factors provoking anxiety-depressive disorder. Both pain and the anxiety-depressive disorders are factors mutually escalating, which at the same time significantly restrict the mobility and quality of life. Musculoskeletal system diseases represent a serious therapeutic problem. Chronic condition, the lack of improvement in treatment of negative symptoms and inability to return not only to social life but also to work is also a serious economic problem.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of the spa treatment on the anxiety, depression and the pain perception level in patients with degenerative joint disease and osteoarthritis of the spine.
Materials and  methods. The research was conducted before the introduction of complex therapy and after its completion. The range of observations included:
– Assessing the level of anxiety and depression using a standard Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale HADS,
– Assessing pain – VAS pain scale,
– medical and socio-demographic history.
The observation comprised 120 patients suffering from osteoarthritis of the limbs in the Przerzeczyn-Zdroj spa. The study also included  observation of the control group consisting of 21-persons treated on an outpatient basis. During the 21-day stays at the spa there were physical treatments, physiotherapy and natural healing materials used such as peloid mud and medicinal radon-sulphide water. Patients treated in the Rehabilitation Clinic did not undergo balneotherapy.
Results. As a result of the spa therapy and treatments performed on an outpatient basis the levels of anxiety and  depression were lowered whereas the pain intensity level was decreased.
Conclusions. 1. Spa treatment and the treatment conducted on an outpatient basis, lowers the level of pain, anxiety and depression in patients with osteoarthritis of the limbs.
2. As a result of the research it was found that more effective, in terms of reducing the level of pain, anxiety and depression, was the treatment carried out at the spa.
