DEVICE FOR thermal and photochromic Ultrasonic treatment of osteoarthritis

摘要

FIELD: medicine.;SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medical equipment, namely to apparatuses for thermal and photochrome ultrasound treatment of osteoarthrosis of various nosologies. The apparatus comprises a control unit, a low-frequency ultrasonic vibration source in the form of an acoustic system accommodating a disc emitter connected to a piezoelectric transducer; there are also provided a knee pad impregnated with an ozone/NO-containing agent, a light-emitting array with distributed red, green and blue solid-state light-emitting diodes. The solid-state light-emitting diodes are seated into the spring light-emitting array coupled with an insulating guard spring plate secured on a carrying pad coupled form the inside with a damping element contacting with the knee pad. The solid-state light-emitting diodes are yellow, infer-red and ultraviolet and seated in the holes formed in the carrying pad and damping element. Each acoustic system is fixed on the carrying pad and configured so that it operates at a resonance frequency within the range of frequencies of 22 kHz to 100 kHz. The piezoelectric transducer contacts with a disc spring hollow guide filled with an immersion medium contacting with the knee pad. The carrying pad is connected from the outside with a carrying holder coupled with a control unit body comprising a display; further, it is provided with two elastic fastening belts on each side.;EFFECT: using the invention enables the higher clinical effectiveness in osteoarthrosis ensured by providing the effect of the complex of physical and physical-chemical factors on the joint.;1 cl, 10 dwg
