Low-intensive laser therapy in complex treatment of patients with gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer

Abstract

The problem of peptic ulcer disease remains one of the most actual in modern gastroenterology due to the high prevalence of the disease, a chronic relapsing course, leading to a significant reduction and loss of earning capacity. The purpose is to evaluate the efficacy of intragastric low-intensive laser therapy in complex treatment of patients with gastric ulcer and 12 duodenal ulcer. Material and methods. The study included 50 patients with peptic ulcer who by means of a simple randomization divided into groups - basic and control. The main group received complex low - intensity laser therapy on the background of drug anti - ulcer therapy, the control group standard anti - ulcer therapy. Results. Using the method of EGD studies have provided evidence of activation of regenerative processes of the mucous membrane of the stomach and 12 duodenal ulcer. A comparative analysis of the dynamics of patients' condition showed that epithelialization and scarring ulcers in 93% of patients of the main group occurs on the 2nd and 3rd week of treatment, whereas patients of the control group in these terms epithelialization and scarring is noted in 70% of patients. The result of the treatment found that intragastric laser therapy on the background of anti - ulcer drug therapy contributes to efficient recovery of the mucous membrane, activation of regenerative processes. In the control group the changes were less important. Conclusion. The use of intragastric low - intensity laser therapy on the background of drug anti - ulcer therapy of patients with peptic ulcer disease helps accelerate the healing of ulcerative and erosive processes, leads to regression of clinical and functional disorders.
