THE ROLE OF HEMOSORPTION IN PROPHYLACTICS AND TREATMENT OF PULMONARY DISORDERS IN PATIENTS WITH PERITONITIS AND ACUTE INTESTINAL-OBSTRUCTION

An analysis of treatment and examination of 80 patients with peritonitis and acute intestinal obstruction of different etiology has been made when hemosorption was used for struggle against intoxication. It has been shown that hemosorption possessing a potent detoxicating effect considerably facilitates activization of the non-gas-exchange functions of the lungs. However, losses of the surfactant synthesis components during hemocarboperfusion as well as absorption of oxygen by certain sorts of charcoal (SKN-4M, SKN-1K) results in arterial hypoxemia. For prophylactics and treatment of pulmonary disorders in patients with peritonitis and acute intestinal obstruction hemosorption must be supplemented with repeated sessions of spontaneous respiration with positive pressure at the end of breathing out.
