Introduction. Interest in the problem of chronic gastritis (CG) is due to the fact that this disease is characterized by chronic course, the severity of which is increasing, gradual atrophy of the gastric glands, the formation of secretory insufficiency, and it is reasonably attributed to the precancerosis.
Aim. To optimize the treatment of patients with CG using “Multisal” and “Walnut Greek Tincture”.
Materials and methods. Under the dynamic observation, there were 126 patients (51 (40.5%) and 75 women (59.5%)) at the age of 53.3±1.73 years. The diagnose was based on the results of the clinical, laboratory and instrumental examination acccording to th eorders of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine.
The material for the study was obtained using a sighting forceps multiple biopsy. The biopsy material was used for histological and cytologic studies. In order to diagnose Helicobacter pylori, a rapid urease test and a cytological method (smear, brush-method) were used. The state of acid-forming function of the stomach was determined using basal topographic pH-metry in all parts of the stomach according to the method developed by V. M. Chernobrov.
Results. The results of evaluation of clinical signs of CG dynamics showed that adherence of “Multisal” and “Walnut Greek Tincture” to traditional treatment or their combination contributed to a stable positive dynamics of clinical symptoms in patients with CG, probably, due to the action of proposed treatment. The obtained information allows us to state that based on the results of the evaluation of the dynamics of the macroscopic signs of CG, the treatment complex with simultaneous use besides the basic drugs “Multisal” and ” Walnut Greek Tincture ” is most effective.
For all the patients with positive urease test, regardless of the proven treatment it was provided Helicobacter pylori eradication.
Conclusions. The adding of “Multisal” and “Walnut Greek Tincture” to the standardized base complex enables to optimize the treatment of CG, improve the subjective well-being of patients, level the endoscopic signs of inflammation of the mucous membrane of the stomach, improve the basal acidity of the stomach, due to the healing properties of “Walnut Greek Tincture”. The obtained results can serve as a basis for their use in clinical practice.
