Abstract: In this paperwork are presented the results of an experimental study realized on a batch of 20 subjects: 10 men and 10 females, made in Techirghiol Balneal and Rehabilitation Sanatorium, between February – June 2009. During this study were measured the body temperature, the radial pulse, the blood pressure and the oscilometric index before and after the hypertherm mud application (mud pack/wrapping) in first, fourth, eighth and twelfth days of the cure. In this paper we present the variation of the temperature before and after mud application.In order to evaluate the range of efficiency were made statistical calculus on medium variation of obtained data. The results show that in first and fourth days determined parameters present important variation and at the end of cure twelfth days – they are in physiological limits. The high level of determined parameters are explained by effects of mud and salt water on the thermoregulation and blood circulation function.
Key Words: body temperature, hyperthermia, peloïde, mud wrapping/pack, efficiency.
1 Introduction resulting from chemical analysis performed. Over time, coastal lakes were subject specialists from These changes have important repercussions on the different research areas. Also, specialized institutions hydrochemical regime of quantitative and qualitative surveyed including lifting topometric complex, analysis component of biocenoses those important elements for hydrochemistry, hydrogeology studies. maintaining ecological balance and mud sludge The motivation of this choice stems from the formation. awareness of research subjects given the special Peloidul is a mixture of organic and inorganic importance of Techirghiol lake water and mud with substances in the state of aggregation and various mud and therapeutic value in the socio economic area structural forms. The definition of "International for which the lake was considered unique in Europe. Society of Medical Hydrology, sludge (peloidele) are" I discovered through study materials paid special natural substance formed under the influence of attention to this issue since the early twentieth century geological processes and finely divided state and mixed (p. Bujor, A. Pascu, I. Tuculescu), but the problem is with water are used in medical practice as a bathroom and currently a topic of interest to hydrologists and or local procedures . others as having a weak hydrological balance (growth After geological origin, describes two groups of level), while Lake has gained a high mineralization sludge: sediment treatment and land treatment).
