NEW APPROACH TO SOLVING THE PROBLEM OF COMPLEX REGIONAL PAIN SYNDROME

Aim - to improve the results of treatment of patients with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) in bone fractures of the lower extremities by applying a new integrated approach. Methods. A new approach to solving the problem of complex regional pain syndrome in fractures of lower limb bones is proposed, including the use of modern minimally invasive methods for surgical treatment of fractures of the lower limb bones, such as blocked osteosynthesis, Fixion technology, use of angular stability plates, metal structures for osteosynthesis of the proximal femur. All these measures help to minimize the negative effect that is produced on the bone by such factors as prolonged immobilization and absence of early movements of the joints, which will make it possible to perform CRPS prophylaxis in bone fractures of the lower limbs more effectively. If it is not possible to prevent the development of CRPS, then it is necessary to administer complex therapy, including psychoemotional correction, adherence to the regime, proper immobilization, rehabilitation exercises, physiotherapy, medical treatment, hyperbaric oxygenation, and gravitational therapy. Results. Clinical tests, radiography, densitometry, method of statistical analysis and mathematical modeling with elements of evidencebased medicine objectively confirmed the activation of the restorative processes in altered tissues of the lower limbs due to the use of the new complex. Conclusion. The analysis of the obtained data of clinical and functional methods of research has proved that the total value of positive results is 80%.
