[Treatment of patients with disorders of spinal circulation using physical factors].

The main clinical syndromes were identified in 136 patients with impaired circulation in the cervical, thoracic and lumbosacral segments of the spinal cord. Using EMG, ENMG and examination of the monosynaptic H-reflex, the authors give a detailed clinico-electromyographic presentation of these syndromes in the process of physiotherapy, aimed at improving the blood circulation in the involved area and at compensation for motor disorders. The study made it possible to determine the effectiveness of the employed therapeutic complexes and to discuss some neurophysiological mechanisms underlying the restoration of motor function under the impact of physiotherapy.
