Ozone therapy is a complementary treatment that has gained popularity due to its safety and wide range of applications. Systemic ozone therapy involves withdrawing 100 to 200 ml of blood, treating it with an oxygen-ozone mixture, and then reinfusing it. This process requires large-caliber venous access, which can be a limitation. To overcome this, alternative administration methods have been explored, including the use of ozonized solutions. The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical effects of systemic ozone therapy on the perception of quality of life and to analyze the outcomes of different administration methods. Three groups of patients were treated: one group received classical systemic ozone therapy, another received ozone therapy via intravenous infusion of a 5% glucose solution, and the third group alternated between the two methods. The results showed an improvement in perceived quality of life in all groups, regardless of the method used. Thus, systemic ozone therapy showed efficacy in improving the perception of quality of life in our group. Moreover, intravenous infusion of a 5% glucose solution has made it possible to treat patients who could not be treated with the classical method, achieving similar results.
臭氧疗法是一种辅助治疗方法,因其安全性和广泛的应用范围而受到欢迎。全身臭氧疗法包括抽取100至200毫升血液,用氧气-臭氧混合气体进行处理,然后再回输。这个过程需要大口径静脉通路,这可能是一个限制因素。为了克服这一点,人们探索了其他给药方法,包括使用臭氧溶液。本研究的目的是评估全身臭氧疗法对生活质量感知的临床效果,并分析不同给药方法的结果。对三组患者进行了治疗:一组接受经典的全身臭氧疗法,另一组通过静脉输注5%葡萄糖溶液接受臭氧疗法,第三组在两种方法之间交替进行。结果显示,无论使用何种方法,所有组的生活质量感知都有所改善。因此,全身臭氧疗法在改善我们研究组的生活质量感知方面显示出疗效。此外,静脉输注5%葡萄糖溶液使那些无法用经典方法治疗的患者能够得到治疗,并取得了类似的结果。
