Description

Analogs: 1. Inhaler (nebulizer) brand “ANDUN-231”; 2. Fumigator brand “DiK-1”; 3. Complex fumigator with rotating fork. Prototype: 4. Portable fumigator of the Raptor Mobile brand.

Use: A method of herbal medicine to aid in the treatment and prevention of diseases.

The proposed method is a new direction of herbal medicine by fumigation or evaporation of beneficial volatile fractions (components) of biologically active natural substances - phytomedicines for the treatment and prevention of diseases.

Analogue 1. There is a known method of treating pulmonary diseases by inhalation, for example using a portable inhaler (nebulizer) of the ANDUN-231 brand. related to ultrasonic finely dispersed types of inhalers. This inhalation method is effective for the treatment of a number of pulmonary diseases, subject to strict medical supervision. However, treatment using inhalation of medicinal drugs provides for a fairly short-term effect (on average, one procedure takes from 10 to 45 minutes) and subject to bed rest (that is, after inhalation, at least, it is not recommended to go out into the cold). (1.)

Analogue 2. There is a known method of fumigation using a fumigator of the “DiK-1” brand, intended for the destruction of blood-sucking insects. This method is based on the evaporation of active substances, such as chamomile or clove extracts, which are harmful to blood-sucking insects, but harmless to humans. Porous plates made of non-flammable material, impregnated with an appropriate repellent, are placed on a flat ceramic evaporator of the fumigator, which is heated by a resistor embedded in a ceramic housing. This fumigator operates from a household power supply in a stationary mode and is not yet used to combat pathogenic microbes (2.), (Fig. 1).

Analogue 3. There is a known method of fumigation using a complex fumigator with a rotating fork, in which, along with the existing flat evaporator for standard plates, it is possible to install a vessel with a liquid repellent designed to combat blood-sucking insects. For this purpose, the fumigator is equipped with a removable container screwed into its body, with a capacity of 30 ml, containing repellent in liquid form. An evaporator rod made of porous material emerges from the vessel and passes through an opening in the flat evaporator. When heated, the porous rod - the evaporator of this fumigator - economically draws out the liquid repellent and gradually evaporates it into the air along with dry (superheated) steam. This device is more convenient for practical use than the DiK-1 fumigator, affordable, and widely distributed in retail sales. The specified fumigator operates from the network, that is, only in stationary mode, and is not yet used to combat pathogenic microbes (3.), (Fig. 2).

Prototype. The closest and most convenient device to the effective implementation of this method of resisting pathogenic microbes is a portable fumigator of the Raptor Mobile brand, powered by AA batteries. This device comes with a replaceable cartridge designed for 10 days of continuous operation. The repellent contains an effective and safe substance for humans called metofluthrin. Its action is aimed at destroying mosquitoes and midges in indoor and outdoor areas. This device has a switch, a mini ventilation system, and an LED operating status indicator light.

However, this device, which is a reliable portable means for combating blood-sucking insects with advanced capabilities, does not yet suggest a method for its use to destroy pathogens, increase the user's immunity and assist in medical procedures. This device does not provide the ability to operate in a stationary version from a household power supply. The device also does not have the possibility of controlled heating of the active substance with an indicator of its heating temperature, which would allow choosing the most optimal mode of its operation. A mini ventilation system, suitable for resisting blood-sucking insects, is not suitable for combating microbes, since it reduces the concentration of volatile components of biologically active substances directly around the user and inside his respiratory system, if you use cartridges impregnated with phyto-preparations (4.). (Fig. 3, 4).

The purpose of the invention is to introduce a method of counteracting pathogenic microbes with the help of phyto-preparations evaporated by fumigators of various types, both stationary, powered by a household power supply, and portable, providing for increased immunity of the user and assistance in his treatment if necessary.

The essence of the invention. It is known that some biologically active substances - phytomedicines, when heated, release beneficial volatile fractions (components) called phytoncides, which can have a beneficial effect on the human body. Phytoncides are natural antibiotics that significantly reduce the number of microbes in the air. At the same time, it has been established that it is more difficult for pathogenic microbes to adapt to the effects of phytoncides from higher plants than to antibiotics obtained from lower plants - microscopic fungi. With their help, you can save yourself from the use of strong antibiotics synthesized artificially, and prevent the formation of the consequences that they entail. Of course, the action of phytoncides will not be as fast, but it will be softer, gentler and more effective. In this regard, the goal can be achieved by fumigation, or evaporation as a result of heating of biologically active beneficial phyto-preparations both from plates (cartridges) soaked in the extract or oil of the corresponding phyto-preparation, and directly by evaporation of these drugs in liquid form.

It is a proven fact that phytoncides have the ability to suppress microbes (bacteria and viruses). In nature, this process proceeds rather slowly due to the low air temperature and the low concentration of these biologically active substances. Scientific observations have long and unequivocally established the fact that, for example, in a pine or fir forest, the intensity of the formation of beneficial phytoncides largely depends on the air temperature. This conclusion can be considered a theoretical justification based on scientific knowledge. In a pine forest, on a hot day, for example, at a temperature of 35 degrees C, noticeably more useful phytoncides are formed than, for example, at a temperature of 5 degrees C. It is the temperature effect on phytopreparations that is a necessary condition for the evaporation of phytoncides for the purpose of their practical use. By evaporating the volatile components of a particular herbal preparation by heating, we simulate (repeat) in a concentrated form the real natural process that causes the release of volatile components of herbal preparations - beneficial phytoncides - into the air.

Useful phytoncides are harmless to humans, tend to increase the user’s immunity, and also help to cure already infected patients. Volatile fractions - phytoncides can penetrate through the lungs and skin into the human body. It has been established that beneficial phytoncides normalize heart rhythm, participate in metabolism, reduce excess blood pressure and blood sugar levels, and have a beneficial effect on the blood circulation process and the condition of human internal organs.

Phytopreparations, represented by extracts, oils, tinctures, solutions and decoctions containing beneficial phytoncides found in many plants, can be used as biologically active substances used to impregnate the plates.

Medical herbal medicine mainly involves the use of herbal medicines in the traditional, usual way, that is, through the gastrointestinal tract. As a result, during the digestion process, not all medicinal and beneficial substances contained in the herbal preparation reach the patient. Moreover, the process itself is delayed in terms of the time of its positive impact. And beneficial phytoncides, which are volatile components of herbal preparations, after evaporation (fumigation) immediately enter the alveoli of the lungs, and then into the human blood.

However, there are also some negative circumstances that must be taken into account. Firstly, not all useful substances in the phyto-preparation are volatile; in particular, these may be non-extractive phytoncides located in the protoplasms of cells. Secondly, some phytoncides, if heated too much, can lose their beneficial properties or disintegrate before reaching the patient (for example, garlic phytoncides). Thirdly, it is not always possible to preserve phytoncides in a “combat ready” state in herbal preparations at the time of their use. For example, if the manufacturing technology of these phytomedicines is violated or the regime and permissible periods of their storage are not followed. Therefore, for herbal preparations, it is important to observe storage conditions and the optimal temperature regime for heating them. It is highly advisable to use these phytotherapy methods simultaneously in a coordinated manner: (a) with the help of beneficial phytoncides evaporated from fumigators, which immediately enter the respiratory system; (b) taking these phytomedicines in the usual way - through the gastrointestinal tract. It is obvious that each of these methods of herbal medicine organically complements each other.

Herbal therapists have at their disposal hundreds of useful herbal preparations that can potentially be introduced into the human body not only through the skin and gastrointestinal tract of a person, but also through his respiratory system using inhalers. However, current standard inhalers are inconvenient for practical everyday use.

The essence of the proposed method of herbal medicine lies in two options for using beneficial phytoncides:

- first option: fumigation of phytoncides from plates or cartridges impregnated with an extract of the corresponding phyto-preparation;

- second option: evaporation of phytoncides together with moist steam, which are released when the vessel is heated, placed on the flat evaporators of fumigators directly, or through one or more thermally insulating plates-gaskets (Fig. 8).

The effectiveness of using these inhalation options to help cure the patient can be increased if these procedures are carried out in an isolated space of a small volume, which allows for a greater concentration of beneficial phytoncides in the immediate vicinity of the patient.

To help in the treatment of people who are already sick from a bacterial-viral infection, the method of fumigation or evaporation of the appropriate phyto-preparation with the most optimal temperature regime of the evaporator from 30 to 115 degrees C inclusive can be used. This method of dry or wet inhalation is comparable to intramuscular injection of drugs, only more convenient to use, since useful biologically active substances immediately and continuously enter the alveoli of the lungs, and then into the human blood.

Of the large number of useful phyto-preparations, any of which can be used in each of the above two applications, the following highly effective phyto-preparations, recognized even by official medicine, stand out, namely: propolis, fir and eucalyptus oils, extracts of St. John's wort, oak leaves, garlic and onions. All of the listed seven phytomedicines have been sufficiently well researched, have a pronounced, repeatedly tested therapeutic effect and can be recommended as first-line phytomedicines for mobile inhalation of patients.

The polyphytoncidal drug propolis has amazing medicinal qualities and their effectiveness has been proven many times in practice. However, one should not lose sight of such an important quality as the cost of the six phyto-medicines listed above, which is significantly less than the scarce propolis. It is a fact that some people are allergic to bee products, including propolis.

The use of such a phytomedicine as fir oil is wide and varied, since it has high biological activity and has numerous beneficial properties for humans. The following aspects of its influence on human internal organs and systems are highlighted: increasing the level of immunity; combating dangerous microorganisms, cleansing the skin; toning the body by activating metabolic processes; combating the accumulation of excess, excess fluid (edema); elimination of a number of inflammatory processes; expectorant property; reducing the intensity of painful sensations. However, like many products of natural origin, fir oil also has its contraindications for use. It cannot be used in the following cases, namely: individual intolerance or allergy to this oil; bronchial asthma; people with kidney disease, stomach or intestinal ulcers, any form of gastritis; there are restrictions for women during pregnancy and breastfeeding; children under 3 years of age.

Eucalyptus oil has a proven sedative, analgesic and expectorant effect and can be successfully used for laryngitis, pharyngitis, stomatitis, insomnia and emotional excitability. Contraindications for use are individual intolerance and pregnancy. The recommended period of use of this drug is no more than three weeks.

St. John's wort is considered a powerful natural antidepressant, which has been proven by numerous previous studies. It is recommended for conditions of fear, tension and stress. St. John's wort also promotes the normal functioning of the digestive system, cures inflammation of the throat, gums and tonsils. In addition, this herbal medicine, due to its antiviral and antibiotic properties, helps in the treatment of colds, sinusitis and bronchitis. However, this drug is contraindicated for thrombosis, high prothrombin and gastric ulcers.

Oak leaf extract has proven healing properties. At the same time, a particularly valuable property of this phytodrug is its pronounced, but at the same time mild hypotensive effect, which does not give side complications. Phytoncides of oak leaves, in addition to antimicrobial properties, normalize heart and blood pressure. Therefore, this type of phytoncides will be especially useful for people suffering from hypertension. In particular, this property is used in the inpatient treatment of hypertensive patients using a special device "Aerofit", where the room air is saturated with phytoncides of oak leaves. As a result, the well-being of patients and their sleep improves. arterial blood is better saturated with oxygen.

Garlic is rightfully considered an effective antiseptic and has many medicinal properties. Garlic contains the bactericidal drug allicin, which is a colorless oily liquid that is poorly soluble in water. But this drug dissolves well in alcohol and ether. An alcohol solution of garlic is effective against many microbes, including such dangerous ones as Koch's bacillus, as well as against typhoid and cholera pathogens.

The onion phyto-preparation is in many ways reminiscent of garlic and its pronounced bactericidal and therapeutic effects are similar to the garlic phyto-preparation and is also well studied by herbal therapists. This herbal medicine is an elixir of human vitality, slows down the development of atherosclerosis, provides natural protection against viral infections, is a means of normalizing intestinal microflora, and promotes treatment for cancer.

To fully implement the proposed method in a fumigator, it is advisable to provide the ability to regulate the temperature of the evaporator and its operation both in a portable version using a variety of mobile power sources, and in a stationary version when connected to the mains via an adapter (Fig. 5). It is possible to lower the excess heating temperature of herbal preparations in a simpler way - by placing thermally insulating plates-gaskets made of non-flammable material with low thermal conductivity on a flat evaporator, for example, from standard plates for fumigators that have expired (5) (Fig. 8).

Implementation of the invention. The invention relates to a method for increasing the immunity of users and assisting in the treatment of sick individuals using fumigators that act by heating effective herbal preparations. In addition to propolis, extracts of fir, eucalyptus, St. John's wort, oak leaves, garlic and onion were chosen as such first-line phyto-preparations. Replaceable plates (cartridges) made of porous non-flammable material are impregnated with a tincture of an effective phyto-preparation, for example, propolis or any of the six other indicated phyto-preparations. In this case, to increase the time of continuous fumigation, the thickness of the plates is taken to be at least 2 times greater than that of standard mosquito repellent plates, that is, at least 4.5 mm (9) (Fig. 7). To extend the continuous action of one plate, after about 5 hours of continuous fumigation at an evaporator heating temperature of about 90 degrees C, it is recommended to turn the plate over to the evaporator with its outer side. This measure will extend the effect of this plate for at least another 2 hours. That is, the total period of effective fumigation of one plate at an evaporator heating temperature close to the maximum will increase to 7 hours. Newly made, soaked and dried plates are placed in sealed packaging and stored in a dry, dark and cool place until use.

To fumigate propolis tincture or other effective phyto-preparation directly in liquid form, a complex fumigator with a rotating fork (3.) can be used (Fig. 2). It is obvious that the most affordable complex fumigators with a rotating fork for performing herbal medicine tasks should be modernized for the sake of safety and ease of operation. To do this, the protective grill of these fumigators must be made removable, snapping into the openings of the body of the corresponding fumigator when it is lowered from top to bottom on this body. Also, the plastic body of the fumigator (1) directly above the flat evaporator (2) (Fig. 6) must be equipped along its perimeter with side limiters (3) made of heat-resistant plastic, so that the thermal insulating plate-gaskets (5), the plate impregnated with the phyto-preparation (8) or a heated vessel (Fig. 8) were securely fixed in the right place.

The best results in applying the proposed method can be obtained using a portable fumigator, the diagram of which is shown in Fig. 5. In addition to the power source (1), the specified fumigator must be equipped with a flat evaporator heating resistor R1 (2), installed in the fumigator body, and an LED operating status indicator Dl (3). The electrical circuit of the fumigator should also include a variable resistor R2 (4), interlocked with an indicator of the plate heating temperature (5) and a scale of possible heating temperatures (6). Switch SA1 (7) is used to turn on (off) the circuit with the existing power source (1). The connector (8) is designed to connect to it a plug (9) from an adapter (10), which, in turn, is connected to the electrical network (11). An important feature of the portable fumigator is the optimal design of its heated part, shown in Fig. 6. The body of such a fumigator must be made of material with high heat capacity, with the exception of the evaporator and the part where the heating resistor is directly located.

The proposed method of herbal medicine using a portable fumigator, the diagram of which is shown in Fig. 5 is implemented as follows. A plate impregnated with propolis (extracts of fir, eucalyptus, St. John's wort, oak leaves, garlic, onion) is placed on a flat evaporator located above the heating resistor R1 (2). Then the plate heating temperature indicator (5) is set to the desired heating temperature on the scale of possible heating temperatures (6), and switch SA1 (7) is moved to the “on” position. The illuminated LED operating status indicator D1 (3) should confirm that the device is operating in normal mode. To operate the device from the mains (11), switch SA1 (7) must be switched to the “off” position. Then the plug (9) of the adapter (10) is connected to the connector (8), and the adapter itself (10) is connected to the power supply (11). The operating status indicator light D1 (3) must confirm the “on” state of the device.

In a portable fumigator, it is necessary to ensure maximum efficiency of operation of the evaporator, for which the heating resistor (6) should be placed as close as possible to the evaporator (2) inside the cemented part of the body (4) (Fig. 6) with a high thermal conductivity coefficient. And the main thermally insulating part of the body of the portable fumigator (7) should be made of a material with high heat capacity (low thermal conductivity). Taking these measures should significantly increase the efficiency of the portable fumigator.

You can reduce the excess temperature on evaporators by using used mosquito repellent plates by placing them on the evaporator as thermal insulating pads. The tests carried out revealed that such thermally insulating plates-gaskets (5) (Fig. 6) sharply reduce the overall heating temperature of the herbal preparation. If you put three thermally insulating plates-gaskets on a flat evaporator, which gives a maximum heating temperature, for example, up to 10 degrees C, then the overall heating temperature will drop by about 70 degrees C. This means that on the evaporated plate or vessel with a phyto-preparation in liquid form the temperature will be about 40 degrees C, which makes it possible to use in fumigators even such thermally unstable, but very effective herbal preparations as extracts (or pulp) of garlic and onion.

The therapeutic effect of inhalation using any of these seven phyto-medicines will be enhanced if the treatment procedures are carried out in an isolated space with a volume of one to three cubic meters. If there is no such room in an apartment or other location, then you can use an insulating canopy over the bed or a single-person tourist tent, the internal volumes of which must be within the above limits.

Examples of practical use of the invention

The possibility of dry and mobile wet inhalation was tested by the applicant on adequate models for all seven of the above phytomedicines, namely extracts: propolis, fir, eucalyptus, St. John's wort, oak leaves, garlic, onion. On a complex fumigator with a rotating fork (Fig. 2, Fig. 8), for ease of use and safety, the protective grille is made removable.

Example 1. Used standard plates for protection against blood-sucking insects measuring 35 mm × 22 mm × 2.3 mm were soaked in liquid phyto preparations (propolis, fir, eucalyptus, St. John's wort, oak leaves, garlic and onion). After impregnation, these plates were removed from the solutions of phytomedicines and dried. Then the dried plates were fastened with an office stapler, two pieces together, with a total thickness of at least 4.5 mm (9) Fig. 7, were packaged in a sealed bag and stored in the refrigerator until they were used. Fumigation of phytoncides from plates fastened together was carried out on a flat evaporator of a complex fumigator with a rotating fork (Fig. 2, Fig. 8) and on a working model of a portable fumigator (Fig. 7). To extend the period of continuous action after 5 hours of continuous fumigation, this block of plates was turned over with the outer side on the evaporator. It was also found that the life of such a block of plates was extended by at least 2 hours after applying a few drops of water to them (approximately 7-8 drops).

Example 2. For wet inhalation at low temperatures, seven proposed phytomedicines in liquid form were successfully tested, heated on stationary fumigators, including a complex fumigator with a rotating fork (Fig. 8). A test thin-walled steel vessel (1) (Fig. 8) of a cylindrical shape with an outer size of 33 mm in diameter and 16 mm in height was installed on the flat evaporator of the fumigator (2) (Fig. 8), into which 10 ml of liquid phytopreparation (4) was poured. . To reduce the excess heating temperature, one to three thermally insulating spacer plates (5) were placed on the flat evaporator. The LED light (3) confirms that the device is operating normally. An alcohol solution of phytomedicines with a volume of 10 ml in this vessel without a gasket evaporated after 1 hour 45 minutes, with one gasket plate - after 2 hours 30 minutes. An aqueous solution with a volume of 10 ml in the same vessel evaporated after 3 hours 20 minutes, and with one spacer plate after 4 hours 50 minutes. That is, herbal preparations with aqueous solutions evaporated approximately 1.9 times slower than alcohol tinctures of the same preparations.

Example 3. Low-temperature fumigation of garlic and onion pulp, in a 10 ml container in a cylindrical steel vessel (1) of the above dimensions, was also tested on the same complex fumigator with a rotating fork with three thermally insulating gasket plates (5) placed on a flat evaporator (Fig. 8). Complete evaporation of the garlic pulp (4) occurred after approximately 7 hours 30 minutes, and of the onion pulp - after 9 hours 15 minutes. During the experiments, it was found that adding a small amount of water to the dried gruel of both phytomedicines allowed them to partially restore their functionality.

Example 4. The operating model of a portable fumigator in a simplified and expanded form was tested on a disassembled and converted fumigator of the DiK-1 brand (Fig. 7). In this device, instead of a heating resistor (6) (Fig. 6) with a resistance of about 16,000 Ohms removed from the cemented part of the body (4), a heating resistor with a resistance of 10 Ohms was installed using a mixture of talc, quartz sand and silicate glue. As a mobile source of electricity, two finger-type power supply elements (1) (Fig. 7), with a capacity of 2300 mAh (2.3 Ah), connected in series using a metal contact jumper (4) and contact plates (5), were used, the total voltage of which was 3 V. In this simplified model of a portable fumigator, a single-pole switch (2), an LED operating status indicator (3), and contact wires (6) were also used. Double plates (9) were placed on a flat evaporator (8), fastened with a stapler and impregnated with one of the seven phytomedicines listed above. The power consumption of the stationary fumigator of the DiK-1 brand was initially 3 W. For this portable version of the fumigator, a power consumption P of 0.9 W was selected. The current strength I in this case became: I=P:U=0.9 W: 3 V=0.3 A, where U is the output voltage of two finger-type power supply elements. In this case, the resistance of the heating resistor R was: R=U:I=3 V: 0.3 A=10 Ohm. This low-resistance heating resistor was installed instead of the remote resistor, with a resistance of about 16 kOhm.

The operational parameters of this model of portable fumigator (Fig. 7) turned out to be very low. The high-capacity finger-type power elements, providing modest heating of the evaporator to only 75 degrees C, barely worked for 7 hours and then completely discharged. From the practical experience, it became clear that the material of the main thermal insulating part of the body (7) (Fig. 6) of this fumigator, converted into a portable fumigator (Fig. 7) in the part below the heating resistor, is completely unsuitable for this purpose. The usual material in most of the main ceramic body has a clearly insufficient heat capacity, in other words, a high thermal conductivity coefficient (Kheat), ranging from 1.4 to 1.7 W/m.deg.). At the same time, there are a number of materials that have a much lower Kheat, for example, foam glass with a thermal conductivity coefficient Kheat = 0.07 W/m.deg.; expanded polystyrene (penoplex) with Ktepl. equal to 0.03 W/m.deg.; polyurethane foam, Ktepl. which lies in the range from 0.025 to 0.035 W/m.deg. Obviously, if the main part of the portable fumigator body is made of penoplex or polyurethane foam, then its thermal conductivity and heat loss will be sharply reduced. This means that the finger-type power supply elements will work much longer during operation of this device with a more heat-intensive main part of the thermally insulating body. At the same time, the maximum temperature on the evaporator of such a fumigator can be easily increased to 100 degrees C, without resorting to a power bank (high-capacity portable external battery).

Example 5. The effect of this method of herbal medicine in an isolated space of a small volume was tested using two options for fumigation of phytoncides, namely: (a) from plates impregnated with an extract of herbal preparations; (b) using low-temperature evaporation of liquid phyto-preparations.

During the daytime, experiments were carried out in a storage room with a total volume of 2.7 cubic meters. m, converted into an office where you can do small manual work, as well as write, read and work with a computer. At night, a thick canopy was installed on the bed, that is, a collapsible tent assembled from wooden slats in the shape of a parallelepiped, measuring 0.8 × 0.8 × 2.0 meters. For this tent, with a volume of 1.28 cubic meters. meters, the sheet is pulled up. Inside such a tent, a convenient place was allocated for installing a stationary fumigator with a switch.

Of all the tested herbal preparations, in the absence of infectious diseases, a mixture of herbal preparations from St. John's wort and oak leaves turned out to be very comfortable and in demand.

Conclusion. Firstly, it was confirmed that phytotherapy using fumigation of phytoncides in an isolated space of small volume is more effective. Secondly, due to a slight increase in the proportion of carbon dioxide inside small rooms, it is advisable to combine such herbal therapy with subsequent walks in the fresh air. Thirdly, a very high effectiveness of herbal medicine was revealed according to option (2), that is, in the form of low-temperature direct fumigation of composite herbal preparations in liquid form.
