[Rehabilitative treatment of patients with ureterolithiasis using pulsed vacuum depression, pulsed low-frequency electric current, and radon therapy].

Abstract

The authors report results of the treatment of 60 patients with ureterolithiasis using a combination of pulsed vacuum depression (local vibrotherapy), low-frequency pulsed (alternating sinusoidal) current, radon water and radon baths. Clinical efficiency of combined therapy is estimated at 93.3%.
