    Context:

    • Vertebral osteochondrosis commonly affects older adults.
    • Effective treatment strategies for this demographic are crucial.
    • Non-invasive therapies are preferred for elderly patients.

    Purpose:

    • To present a generalized treatment approach for vertebral osteochondrosis in patients over 60.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of electric sleep and electroanalgesia in this patient group.
    • To define the role of operative intervention.

    Summary:

    • The study analyzed 73 patients over 60 with vertebral osteochondrosis.
    • A treatment regimen emphasizing electric sleep and electroanalgesia alongside physical procedures was employed.
