Keywords: organism functional reserves, complex approach, rehabilitative treatment, long-term health indices, patient’s quality of life
Abstarct: The authors studied the correlation between the dynamics of organism functional reserves which were directly examined after rehabilitation course and alterations of long-term health indices (such as ability to work, disease remission stability) and quality of life within one year after discharge from the sanatorium. It was determined that the increase value of the organism functional reserves was allowed to be the basic quantitative criterion for the efficacy of therapeutic, rehabilitative and sanative measures.
