Abstract:
Chronic tonsillitis is one of the most common diseases to modern people, which treatment requires a preventative care course approach. The general purpose of the present research could be framed as follows: to estimate clinical efficiency of bacteriophage medications, in the case of 'Ostophag' mixture for preventative care. Study population consisted eighty people. Participants were divided into two groups (forty patients in each) both diagnosed compensated and decompensated forms of chronic tonsillitis with pathogenic microflora in the lacunae of the palatine tonsils. In the first group we built monotherapy on bacteriophage medications use, whereas in the second one monotherapy was founded on antiseptic implication. The results of the present investigation showed high efficiency of bacteriophage medications a means of chronic tonsillitis salvage care.
