Author performs the recording of the distraction parameters at horizontal traction during treatment of lumbar spine osteochondrosis. Fixative losses were taken into consideration. Mathematical method was used to calculate the value of distraction and resultant coefficients depending on the engineering peculiarities of the traction device. Analyses of 157 traction procedures with different fixation method was carried out, design formulas of the optimum traction value to increase the treatment efficacy were elaborated.
