Abstract

Explosion barotraumas of the middle ear and neurosensory hypoacusis were observed in all examinees with ENT contusion. Acute neurosensory hypoacusis of any etiology is accompanied with stress which stimulates secretion of beta-endorphine showing adaptogenic, immunomodulating and anti-inflammatory properties. In patients with mine explosion trauma beta-endorphine was 2-2.5-fold higher than the basal concentration. Pharmacoacupuncture followed by electrostimulation of biologically active points improves acoustic function. Further target studies of current aspects of complex mine explosion trauma of the brain, acoustic and vestibular systems must be done.
