[The restoration of cardiovascular system function in patients with chronic glomerulonephritis after the use in staged medical rehabilitation of measured therapeutic physical exercise].

Abstract
As many as 195 patients were studied presenting with mixed, nephrotic, and hematuric varieties of chronic glomerulonephritis (ChG), aged 6-15 years, including 118 children from the test-groups who were given a combined therapy involving differentiated rest-and-movement regimens (DRMR) and graded therapeutical physical training (GTPT) and 77 controls who received none of the above treatments. The examination involved clinical as well as functional tests (the unit "Cardiocid"-aided ECG, EchoCG on the "Combison-420-5"), with the renal function being evaluated as recommended by Ota Shiuk. Commonly seen in those being admitted into hospital was nephrogenous hypertension as were abnormal changes in myocardium associated with automatism malfunction, inadequate conductivity, and impaired myocardial contractile ability. Clinical and functional tests as a whole suggested to us a latent cardiac insufficiency in those children presenting with faulty kidney function. Use of DRMR and GTPT in a complex of therapeutic and rehabilitative measures in a continuous staged medical rehabilitation project makes for improvement of the function of the cardiovascular system in all of the varieties of the condition particularly so in hematuric and nephrotic forms of ChG, as evidenced by ECG and EchoCG in a 5-yr follow-up.
