Summary

Brief Summary: Participants with rheumatoid arthritis with recommendation to physiotherapy. Created 2 study groups: 1. Kinesiotherapy with static magnetic field 2. Kinesiotherapy with low-frequency pulsed magnetic field Pulsed magnetic field give better effects then static magnetic field.

Detailed description

Participants with rheumatoid arthritis with recommendation to physiotherapy. All participants have dysfunction and pain of hand. Before entering the study, all patients were examined by a rheumatologist, who determined the degree of radiological and functional changes and measured blood pressure. Patients with II° and III° of radiological and functional changes were qualified for the study. All the patients gave their informed consent to participate in the study. The examination included an overall assessment of functional status. Patients were examined immediately before and after the intervention.
