Abstract

The aim of the study was to analyze the effect of tonic therapeutic gymnastics on the course of dyskinesia of the hypotonic-hypokinetic type of the gallbladder and other biliary tract. Materials and methods: The study was conducted on the basis of the outpatient department of the Rivne City Hospital of the Rivne City Council. It involved 28 patients with a clinically confirmed diagnosis of non-calcific chronic cholecystitis in remission, biliary dyskinesia of the hypotonic type. Half of the tested patients (control group n=14) were treated with standard treatment, and the other half (main group n=14), in addition, were engaged in our proposed course of therapeutic exercises aimed at increasing the tone of the gallbladder and accelerating the passage of bile through the biliary tract. During the experiment, three parameters were tested: the effect of the therapeutic tonic exercises proposed by us on the clinical course of the disease; the degree of emptying the gallbladder after the use of choleretic agents; the volume of a single release of gallbladder bile. Two test measurements were made – at the beginning of the experiment and after 6 months of treatment. Results. The final summarizing results indicate a significant positive effect of targeted therapeutic tonic exercises on the course of the underlying disease, namely: the frequency of pain attacks after eating and at night decreased by 34 and 24 ± 2% in patients of the main group, respectively, compared to the control group; dyspeptic phenomena – nausea/ vomiting and flatulence/stool disorders by 18 and 28 ± 2%, respectively. In addition, the contractile capacity of the gallbladder increased by 5 ± 0.2%, and the volume of bile secretion decreased by 13 ± 2%. Conclusions. The use of tonic therapeutic gymnastics in dyskinesia of hypotonic-hypokinetic type significantly improves the contractile function of the gallbladder and ducts, which is manifested by improvement of clinical symptoms and reduction of bile stasis in the hepatobiliary system.
