[A clinico-neurophysiological analysis of the single action of laser puncture]

Mechanisms were studied of a single exposure to laser puncture on the basis of clinico-neurophysiological investigations in 50 patients with cochleovestibular dysfunctions in the presence of vascular affections of the brain. In a comparative evaluation of endaural versus auricular laser puncture, more pronounced changes were revealed in all the parameters studied during the course of treatment with the former modality than they were with the latter, these parameters being the patients' general well-being as judged by subjective evidence, the ability of the points to conduct electrical current, and the findings from rheoencephalography, encephaloradiothermometry, audiovestibulometry.
