Prevention of acute respiratory viral infections in pregnant women plays a leading role in the modern world. The most common causes of acute respiratory viruses are influenza, parainfluenza, respiratory syncytial, adenovirus or rhinovirus infections. The greatest danger posed by acute respiratory viral infections is the possible complications of pregnancy: premature rupture of amniotic fluid, premature delivery, risk of intrauterine infection of the fetus, risk of infectious postpartum complications, and others. The article presents an original clinical study devoted to the immunomodulatory effect of non-selective chromotherapy in preventing influenza and other acute respiratory viral infections in pregnant women. The study was conducted in the sanatorium "Vasilevsky" in the Zelenodolsky District of the Republic of Tatarstan. A total of 348 pregnant women with gestational age from 12 to 30 weeks participated in the study. Pregnant women were divided into two groups: the first group, which received non-selective chromotherapy; the second group, the control group. The study results presented in this article demonstrated the safety and high efficacy of non-selective chromotherapy in the prevention of acute respiratory infections in pregnant women. These results open up new opportunities in the prevention of acute respiratory viral infections during pregnancy.
