Application of Applicative Lapko devices in acute respiratory viral infections

Acute respiratory infections (ARI), or acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI) - the most common group of diseases in the world, combining influenza, parainfluenza, respiratory syncytial infection, rhinovirus and adenovirus infections and other catarrhal infections of the upper respiratory tract. In the process of development, a viral disease can be complicated by a bacterial infection.

There are 2 main groups of acute respiratory diseases -

1) caused by viruses and

2) arising with the participation of bacteria, allergens and colds. It is known that with strong cooling, the body's resistance to bacteria, especially in non-hardened people, decreases. In the autumn-winter and spring, when frequent temperature changes are observed, the number of acute respiratory diseases increases. People with weakened immunity are especially susceptible to them.

Epidemiology

The spread of respiratory diseases is seasonal. Influenza occurs mainly in December-March. During the epidemic, viral flu accounts for 70-80% of all respiratory diseases.

Parainfluenza, adenovirus, and rhinovirus infections are registered year-round and occupy one of the first places in the incidence rate between influenza epidemics.

Influenza viruses equally affect both adults and children, while young children are more sensitive to adenoviruses, respiratory syncytial and parainfluenza viruses. Rhinoviruses primarily cause disease in adults.

Transmission paths

Acute respiratory infections are transmitted by airborne droplets (when coughing or sneezing), contact and alimentary routes (through objects of common use - toys, linen or dishes).

The source of infection is a sick person.

Clinical manifestations

The main symptoms of SARS - it starts suddenly, with a sharp increase in body temperature, there is a chill with trembling, sweating, aching muscles and body, weakness, often there is a runny nose, cough, sneezing, headache, sore throat, eyeballs, vomiting is possible. , loose stools, weakness.

In most cases, ARVI passes within 5-7 days, although the cough may persist for another 1-2 weeks.

Diagnostics

Clinical diagnosis of acute respiratory infections is difficult.

Specific laboratory diagnostics is based on the isolation of the virus with its subsequent identification or (more often) on the determination of the increase in the level of specific antibodies on the 10-14 day of illness.

For early and quick recognition of acute respiratory diseases, immunofluorescence microscopy methods are used to detect the virus or its antigen directly in nasopharyngeal swabs or in cell culture taken from diseased material.

The most common complications

Acute sinusitis. A common complication is bacterial sinusitis - inflammation of the sinuses of the nose, namely sinusitis, frontal sinusitis, sphenoiditis.

Acute otitis media. Such an unpleasant complication of colds as inflammation of the middle ear.

Acute bronchitis. A bacterial infection can also affect the bronchi.

Pneumonia (or pneumonia). Perhaps one of the most formidable complications of ARVI. The diagnosis is made on the basis of a comprehensive examination, but if, with a common cold, no improvement is observed within 7-10 days, the temperature remains high, cough should immediately consult a doctor.

Treatment

Medicines have not been developed against most ARVI pathogens and timely differential diagnosis is difficult.

Despite the fact that SARS is caused by viruses against which antibiotics are useless, the disease is often accompanied by a bacterial infection and the use of antibiotics can only be justified if complications arise due to the secondary infection.

Of the antipyretic drugs used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Prescribe antihistamines.

Regular intake of vitamin C does not reduce the chances of getting a cold, but it can reduce its severity and duration.

Prevention

At the height of the infection, it is recommended to limit attendance at public events, especially indoors, to avoid contact with patients, and to wash hands more often.

Patients are advised to observe bed rest, not to attend public events, to wear a gauze bandage.

An effective means of preventing influenza and acute respiratory viral infections is a deep washing of the nose with saline.

A significant role belongs to the systematic hardening of the body.

An excellent means of stimulating the immune system, and hence the prevention of acute respiratory viral infections, is the integrated use of Lyapko application devices (hereinafter referred to as the applicator) and Lyapko therapeutic respiration pyramid.

Applicator and roller exposure patterns

Application of UAF

Zones of applications: basic 2, 3; additional 1, 4, 12, 13; auxiliary 20, 22, 28, 31.

Using the applicator, use the main, additional and auxiliary zones. The exposure time is 10-30 minutes. For colds, it is recommended to use the small applicators for a long time crossly. For example, to point D on the left, point C on the right, point B on the left, to the center of zone A and E or F.

It is possible to treat all these areas with a roller for 15-20 minutes.

All respiratory diseases, inflammatory, allergic in nature, require breathing correction. It is necessary to regulate breathing in the direction of decreasing its intensity, restraining it (breathing should be silent, invisible).

Recommended use of the Pyramid of therapeutic respiration Lyapko in the initial stages of the development of the disease.

Additional recommendations

For colds, chronic diseases of the bronchi and lungs, the applicator is used as a "mustard". Treatment always ends with application of the feet. Feet can be warmed up and moistened before application (usually for colds accompanied by high fever, feet are cold and dry to the touch). To do this, 3-7 times a day, apply a roller or applicator for 5-10 minutes.

In case of allergic or catarrhal rhinitis on the applicator should lie in zone 1 or wear it bandaged to the back of the head 2-5 times a day for 10 -20 minutes. You can apply a circular head-wrap with Magic tape Health or Universal belt with the mandatory capture of the occipital region, upper jaw and upper lip, it is also useful to use the back and front of the neck.

To consolidate the effect after applying the applicators, it is useful to use rubbing with cedar, fir oil and other medicinal herbs.

The procedure in a phytobarrel gives good results. Inhalation of the healing vapor concentrate has an excellent bactericidal effect and leads to a speedy recovery .
