THE EXPERIENCE OF TREATMENT THE PATIENTS WITH COMPLICATED VIRAL RESPIRATORY TRACT INFECTIONS: ROLE OF...

The aim: To study the clinical manifestations, capillary blood saturation, frequency of respiratory failure in patients with complicated forms of acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI).

Materials and methods: The study included 70 patients with ARVI (mean age was 46.5±9.2 years). Patients observed were randomized into 2 groups. In group 1 (n=30), the only basic therapy was prescribed. In group 2 in addition to the basic therapy the inhalations with high concentrated oxygen with Camomile Oil were used.

Results: It is proved that the use of highly concentrated oxygen with camomile oil in the inhalation treatment regimen significantly reduces the duration of local respiratory symptoms (p<0.001) and symptoms of general intoxication (p<0.001), prolonged hospital stay decreases by an average of 5 days (p<0.001). The relief of symptoms of RF in group 2 was noted for 10 days of hospitalization with an increase in capillary blood saturation (SatO2,%) to 95.2±2.91. Absolute therapeutic efficacy (absolute efficacy) of the correction of RF during complex treatment with the addition of highly concentrated oxygen was 88.0% versus 57.0% in group 1. Relative efficacy (RE) - 0.65 [0.46-0.90], odds ratio (OR) - 0.19 [0.06-0.61], p<0.05. The positive effect of highly concentrated oxygen for local immunity state - the level of secretory immunoglobulin A (p<0.001) and lysozyme (p<0.001) was established.

Conclusions: High-concentrated oxygen inhalations adding camomile oil is effective in complex treatment at patients with complicated forms of acute respiratory viral infections.
