Chronic pain in the pathology of the musculoskeletal system is one of the most common problems of the modern person, which leads to a deterioration in the quality of life and requires continuous and long-term treatment, indicating the need to develop new methods of treatment and rehabilitation.
The aim of the study – to improve the treatment of patients with chronic pain of the musculoskeletal system using the HIT TheraCell®100 device.
Material and Methods. All patients with chronic pain of the musculoskeletal system underwent a comprehensive examination, treatment and rehabilitation using both conventional and special methods using the HIT TheraCell®100 device. The effectiveness of the HIT TheraCell®100 high-energy pulsed field application was estimated from the quantitative survey method using the anonymous questionnaire.
Results and Discussion. The article presents the results of treatment of patients with chronic pain of the musculoskeletal system. The application of HIT TheraCell®100 high-energy pulsed field has been found to be effective in alleviating pain and not burdensome for patients, which improves the quality of treatment and rehabilitation. The results indicate the prospect of further study of the methodology and its introduction into clinical practice.
Conclusions. Treatment of chronic pain of the musculoskeletal system using the TheraCell® 100 device can be used in combination with therapeutic methods. It helps to relieve pain and does not take much time that is not burdensome for patients. Thus, the treatment of chronic pain of the musculoskeletal system by therapy with HIT TheraCell®100 can find its place among the medical techniques in the Czech Republic and Ukraine.
