Abstract:
The condition of microcirculation in the region of the joints was studied by means of polarography on oxygen with an oxygen load and thermography on the Soviet high resolution television set "Paduga" in 30 patients with primary deforming osteoarthrosis (PDOA) and 15 practically healthy persons. Different direction shifts in the levels of supply and consumption of oxygen in the periarticular tissues in patients with PDOA were determined, a considerable drop in oxygen supply to the regions of the affected joints being noted. It has been established that thermography is a method of choice for diagnosis of secondary synovitis and other inflammatory affections of the joints.
