The trial of combined and sequential use of interference currents and exercise therapy in patients with endoprosthesis of knee joint ligaments has shown effectiveness of such treatment as it early after operation relieves pain, edema of soft tissues, improves proprioception, bioelectric activity of the neuromuscular system.

[Proceedings: Indications and limitations of breathing gymnastics].

Chronic obstructive lung disease represents the most important field of application for respiratory physiotherapy. The technic comprises two successive stages: inhalation of a bronchospasmolytic and secretolytic aerosol (e.g. Alupent or Ventolin, diluted in tacholiquine or Bisolvon) followed by breathing exercises. These exercises are divided into three parts: respiratory movements such as diaphragmatic or abdominal breathing, drainage of bronchial secretions, and exercises to relax the muscles of the shoulders, the thorax and the skin, all these movements being executed in the rhythm of breathing. The effect of respiratory physiotherapy depends on the cooperation of the patient, the technic and the degree of severity of bronchiolar stenosis. The method is only successful in patients with slight to moderate bronchospasm; in those who suffer from dyspnea at rest it is usually ineffective. The prerequisite for success is longterm treatment. This means that the patient must continue to practice the acquired technique at home at least once a day. A description of the other indications for breathing exercises, such as bronchiectasis, chronic pneumonia, lung abscess, atelectasis, pleural fibrosis etc., is followed by a summary of the contraindications for the method.
