[Means for increasing the effectiveness of rehabilitation at the sanatorium-health resort stage in nonspecific lung diseases among the inhabitants of southwestern Siberia].

Rehabilitation of patients with nonspecific pulmonary diseases in the "Barnaulsky" sanatorium (521 patients) resulted in a 3.5-fold decrease in the number of cases of exacerbation during one year after treatment, the duration of temporary disability was decreased 2.7-fold; these indices for the Belokurikha health resort (346 patients) were 3.2- and 6-fold, respectively; for prophylactic sanatoria at factories (709 patients)--3.3- and 3-fold; for a Crimean health resort in Yalta (266 patients)--3.2- and 2.5-fold. After rehabilitation in sanatoria dysadaptation reactions were noted in 69% of the patients treated in the contrast climatic area and in 16% of the patients treated in local sanatoria. Rehabilitation efficacy in patients with dysadaptation was twice less. Dysadaptation reaction prophylaxis raised 2-fold the efficacy of treatment in sanatoria. The development of specialized pulmonologocal care of patients with nonspecific pulmonary diseases in local Siberian sanatoria and health resorts and the development of problems related to the etiology, pathogenesis and prophylaxis of dysadaptation reactions in patients during treatment in contrast climatic health resort areas hold great promise for raising the efficacy of rehabilitation of patients residing in the South of West Siberia.
