[The effect of peloid therapy on cardiovascular function in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis].

Abstract

Data on 400 patients with pulmonary tuberculosis indicate that inclusion of mud drugs (peloidin, gumisol, torfot) according to proposed methods reduces abacillation time, closure of disintegration cavities and at the same time does not produce negative effects on the functional state of the cardiovascular system. Peloid therapy favours normalization of the cardiac rhythm in cases of initial tachycardia and normalization of the arterial pressure in initial hypotonia.
