 for simultaneous endovaginal and endocervical electrophoresis.

The utility model relates to medicine, namely to dermatovenereology and can be used in dermatovenereological, gynecological, physiotherapeutic departments and offices of hospitals and clinics.

The product is intended for use in the complex treatment of chronic endocervicitis and colpitis.

Chronic endocervicitis and colpitis are the most frequently diagnosed diseases in dermatovenereological and gynecological practice. Physiotherapeutic methods and, in particular, drug electrophoresis (LE) are widely used in the treatment of these diseases. 1,2

In the mechanism of action of electrophoresis, the influence of direct current, contributing to an increase in ionic activity in tissues, biological fluids, and the specific pharmacological effect of the drug substance are important. The features of LE are the following: the effect of sub-therapeutic doses of a substance, its accumulation in tissues, i.e. the creation of tissue depot and the gradual flow into organs and tissues.

When using special electrodes (vaginal, cervical), it is possible to introduce a drug

directly to the lesion, in which a specific pharmacological effect is long-lasting.

Galvanization (electrophoresis) of the pelvic organs in women is carried out in the following ways:

a) abdominal-sacral technique - one electrode with a size of 10-20 cm is placed above the pubic joint, the second of the same size in the sacral region;

b) abdominal-rectal technique - an electrode measuring 20x20 cm is placed above the pubic joint (anode), the second (cathode) is a special rectal electrode;

c) the abdominal-vaginal technique - an electrode measuring 20x20 cm is placed above the pubic joint (anode), the second (cathode) is the vaginal electrode;

d) shaving-sacral-vaginal technique - one electrode with an area of 200 sq. cm is located above the pubic joint, the second of the same area in the sacral region is connected to the anode (cathode).

When electrophoresis on the area of exposure previously

impose 2-3 layers of gauze or filter, moistened with a medicinal solution. The current strength is 10-15 mA, the exposure time is 20 min, daily or every other day, per course - 15-20 procedures.

As a vaginal electrode, a rod graphite electrode from a set of gynecological electrodes to the apparatus “Flow- or“ Flow-2.3 is used

For endocervical electrophoresis, a special electrode is used in the form of a probe wrapped in a hydrophilic tissue moistened with a medicinal substance, or a Rizov-Pashova electrode. 4

A significant drawback of these electrodes is the inability to conduct electrophoresis simultaneously endovaginally and endocervically.

We have developed a universal electrode for simultaneous endocervical and endovaginal electrophoresis. The proposed electrode is shown in figure 1, where:

1- graphite rod

2- elastic catheter,

3- conductive metal spiral,

4- radial holes

5- fitting

6- proximal end of the spiral.

It includes a graphite rod (1), along the axis of which a through cylindrical channel is made, an elastic catheter (2) is located in it, with the possibility of movement along the axis of the rod. A metal conductive spiral (3) is coaxially located inside the catheter. The distal end of the catheter is rounded and plugged and radial holes (4) are made on its surface, and the proximal section of the catheter is connected to the plug (5) from a dielectric, through the walls of which the proximal end of the helix is sealed (6). A graphite rod is a vaginal electrode, and a catheter with a metal spiral is cervical.

The electrode is used as follows.

With the help of a gynecological mirror, the cervix is removed, a discharge is removed with a sterile swab from the walls of the vagina and cervix. Then the distal part of the elastic catheter with a metal coil (cervical electrode) is inserted into the cervical canal. A graphite rod coated with a hydrophilic tissue moistened with a drug (vaginal electrode) is inserted into the vagina.

After this, the electrode adheres, and the Cusco mirror is removed. A drug is introduced through an opening in the cervical electrode fitting and the electrode is connected to the corresponding pole (anode or cathode depending on the drug substance) by a bifurcated wire from the Potok-1 or Potok-2 apparatus, one end to the proximal part of the spiral, the other to the proximal end of the graphite rod . Electrodes with

gaskets with an area of 200-300 sq. cm, which are connected to the other pole. The current strength is 8-10 mA. The duration of the procedure is 20-30 minutes. A course of 1015 daily treatments.

The use of the proposed device differs.

non-traumatic, easy to implement and fully compatible with other methods and methods of treatment.

The use of this electrode in LE in 45 patients with chronic endocervicitis significantly reduced the duration of treatment and increased therapeutic efficacy. Side effects and complications were not noted.
