The purpose of the work is study of efficiency of medical rehabilitation of patients after aortocoronary bypass grafting on the resort stage with the use of combined electric, electromagnetic, quantum and microvibration therapy. 150 patients were randomized in three groups. First group (75 persons) together with the basic treatment (antiaggregants, beta-blockers, statins) received combined electric, electromagnetic, quantum and microvibration therapy. A new device Eliton was used. Second group (45 persons) together with the basic treatment received laser therapy. Third group (30 persons) received the basic treatment without use of physiotherapy. The patients after aortocoronary bypass grafting who received combined basic treatment and physiotherapy showed positive dynamics of functional recovery, their painful and inflammatory injuries caused by postoperative trauma and concomitant pathology were reducted significantly earlier and completely.
