Objective was to determine the content of sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), calcium (Ca2+), and magnesium (Mg2+) electrolytes in non-stimulated mixed saliva of children, with disorders of autonomous nervous system (ANS), who were born and are permanently residing at radioactive contaminated territories after application of intermittent normobaric hypoxia (INH) of sanogenic level. Patientes and methods. The children (41 boys and 62 girls) aged 6-17 years were examined. All they were divided into three groups: the control group consisted of 30 persons (group I); the comparison group - 30 person (group II); the main group - 43 patients (group III). The collection of anamnesis, patient complaints, clinical and laboratory examinations were included into the studied program. The content of electrolytes in oral fluids was determined by the atomic absorption method. 10 seances of INH with a hypoxic component of 12% oxygen in nitrogen were used by us. Results. It was shown that the content of electrolytes in non-stimulated mixed saliva had a multidirectional significance in different age groups after INH: in examined children of primary school age (6-11 years), the Na+ concentration was significantly increased by 0.8 mmol/l, K+ concentration was decreased by 3 mmol/l, Ca2+ concentration was decreased by 1.07 mmol/l and in children of senior school age (12-17 years) - Na+, and Ca2+ concentrations were decreased by 2 mmol/l and 0.17 mmol/l, respectively. Conclusions. The obtained results allow to recommend the INH seances for addition to basic treatment of children with disorders of autonomous nervous system, who were born and are permanently residing at radioactive contaminated territories of Ukraine.
