Methoden der UV-Bestrahlung von Blut HOT/UVB - Grundlagen, Klinik und Praxis

Journal/Book: Ärztezeitschrift für Naturheilverfahren. 1992; 33/6: 475-479.

Abstract: Haematogenic oxidation therapy (HOT) and ultraviolet blood treatment (UVB) are biological therapeutic methods. The terms describe autohaemotherapy involving UVC radiation therapy (spectrum maximum wavelength 253.7 nm). In HOT the blood is foamed with oxygen to increase the surface area; in UVB the blood is irradiated twice by the UVC light in a tube/cuvette system.Biological therapeutic methods serve to preserve the homoeostatic status of the basal regulatory system. Their effect is primarily conditioned by biophysical processes in the form of various photobiological reactions.This therapeutic method of blood irradiation is simple and easy to learn. It releases the entire spectrum of biologically active substances from the neutrophilic granulocytes subjected to lysis in HOT. This results in a stimulation of the immunological system, whereby the macrophages, the natural killer cells and the mediator substances are activated.The HOT/UVB has a wide range of possible indications: The main areas of application are arterial circulatory disturbance, coronary heart disease (CHD) and cerebrovascular insufficiency. HOT/UVB is a causal therapy to improve microcirculation.Further indications are chronic liver ailments, disturbances of lipid metabolism, diabetes mellitus and HOT as accompanying therapy in cancer patients.
