Abstract

Objective: To analyze changes in tissue blood flow, metabolic processes and reactivity of skin microvessels after helium-neon laser irradiation in athletes at rest and after physical loading. Material and methods. 37 athletes were examined. They were divided into two groups: main group (MG) 22 athletes and comparison group (CG) 15 athletes. Sportsmen were irradiated with low-level infrared laser light generated by two-channel therapeutic modernized device «Uzor-A-2K» (registered by Roszdravnadzor). Wavelength 0.89 µm, exposure 4 minutes, two light emitters, pulse repetition rate 1500 Hz. Cubital veins were irradiated at the procedure. Output power 3.6 W. Hemomicrocirculation was examined with laser Doppler flowmeter LAKK-M (LAZMA Ltd, Russia) on the palm side of a finger. Results. While comparing results of examination of subjects from MG and CG, it was found out that in MG perfusion rate increased by 24%, specific oxygen tissue consumption – by 8%; rate of oxygenation of mixed blood microcirculation decreased by 8%; redox reactions in mitochondria increased by 38% (p < 0.05). In athletes from MG, there was a significant reduction of microvascular tone due to neurogenic, myogenic and endothelial components. During load testings, sportsmen from MG had statistically significant increase in their specific activity. Conclusion. Low-level laser light, being used as a restorative tool, increases perfusion and metabolism in microcirculation, thus, increasing specific physical activity in athletes.
