UVBI and laser irradiation of the blood
Ultraviolet blood irradiation (UVBI) is one of the leading methods of quantum therapy, aimed at activating human immunity and treating many diseases at the cellular level. The unique features of the UVBI method are its good indicators of effectiveness, absolute safety for the human body and simplicity of performance.

How is UVBI of the blood performed?
Ultraviolet blood irradiation is carried out with the help of special equipment – a source of low-intensity ultraviolet radiation. As follows from the name, the method consists in irradiating a small amount of the patient’s blood (1-3 ml per 1 kg of weight) with quanta of ultraviolet light. Under the influence of ultraviolet light, complex biochemical and biophysical processes are triggered in the blood, and these lead to an improvement in the person’s state of health. Treatment is carried out in the form of a course of 7-10 procedures with a frequency of 3 times a week.
Intravenous laser irradiation of the blood (red light) is a leading method of treating and preventing many diseases with the help of light. It consists in the effect of low-intensity laser radiation on the blood cells. The safety of the action of the light and its effectiveness are achieved by direct entry into the blood, bypassing the skin.

The effectiveness of undergoing a course of UVBI or laser blood irradiation procedures for the patient lies in the fact that:
- Immunity is stimulated at the cellular level,
- The manifestations of intoxication (toxic poisoning) are reduced,
- The oxygen saturation of the blood is increased, and consequently the risk of the appearance of blood clots is reduced,
- Improvement of the blood supply of tissues and organs, their regeneration,
- General recovery takes place faster than when taking chemical medicines.
These procedures are especially effective in:
- Recurrent furunculosis (the so-called «boils» on the face and body);
- Chronic adnexitis (salpingo-oophoritis),
- Chronic prostatitis;
- "Hidden" infections;
- Anaemia;
- Ulcers of the gastrointestinal tract;
- Diabetes;
- Pyelonephritis (inflammation of the kidneys);
- Arthritis (inflammation of the joints);
- Ischaemia of various areas and organs.
However, there are contraindications, among which:
- Increased sensitivity to ultraviolet light (photodermatosis);
- Oncological diseases;
- Acute disorders of cerebral circulation;
- Prolonged bleeding;
- Haemophilia;
- Exacerbation of tuberculosis.
UVBI of the blood has a pronounced bactericidal action, therefore it is recommended in chronic infectious diseases caused by staphylococci, streptococci, herpes viruses, fungi and others. The method promotes the activation of the defences of the whole body and has a positive effect on the immune status. Ultraviolet action promotes the dilation of the vessels and a reduction of the viscosity and coagulation of the blood. The UVBI method of the blood is highly effective both in acute diseases and in chronic ones. In the treatment of chronic diseases there is no more effective method of treatment.
Laser irradiation of the blood improves blood microcirculation to a greater degree, which promotes the fastest healing of ulcers, the relief of inflammation in the kidneys, and the improvement of intracerebral and intracardiac blood flow.

Advantages of undergoing ultraviolet or laser irradiation of the blood at the «SAN» centre of efferent therapy in Zaporizhzhia:
- The procedures are performed on modern equipment and are unique in Zaporizhzhia.
- Only disposable consumables are used, and therefore the risk of infection is absent.
- All disposable instruments are opened in the presence of the patient.
- Many years of experience of the transfusiologists and professionalism confirmed by the relevant certificates.
- Comfortable conditions for carrying out the procedures.
- The centre is located on the premises of the inpatient department of the «VitaCentre» clinic, which additionally allows the use of the full range of medical services.
- This method can be used in the form of independent treatment or in combination with drug therapy in order to achieve the maximum effect.
The positive effect of this method of treatment is preserved for a long time.
At our centre a combination of UVBI + laser irradiation of the blood procedures, or a combination with plasmapheresis, is possible.
