ABSTRACT
A pre-experimental study was conducted before then, in order to assess the effect of
immunomodulator of ozone therapy in children with immunodeficiency defects of phagocytemediated
immunity. The universe was made up by a total of 18 children with deficiencies in
phagocytosis, assisted in the Immunology consultation from September 2009 until June 2010
that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Ozone was applied in doses by rectal insufflation
stepped up a 40μg/mL concentration, for three months. The variables were assessed 1 month
after treatment. It was determined if there are significant differences between determinations
before and after of ozone therapy, through T of means comparison test for dependent samples,
with a significance level α = 0. 05. There were significant increases in the absolute neutrophil
count in 100% of cases and the Leukocyte Phagocytic function significantly improved in a 94%
after receiving ozone therapy. The clinical state, qualitatively evaluated, was satisfactory in
children treated with ozone and no adverse reactions were reported during treatment. It is
suggested this therapeutic approach as immunostimulant therapeutic alternative in the phagocytic
deficiency.
