[Chemoluminescence of blood and urine in diffuse appendicular peritonitis in children]

The results of the study of hemiluminescence of native blood, plasma and urine in 56 children with diffuse purulent peritonitis demonstrate that changes of light-sum of the luminescence of the investigated media could reflect aggravation of endogenous intoxication connected with development of organic insufficiency. The usage of blood and urine hemiluminescence for definition of the gravity of endogenous intoxication in diffuse forms of appendicular peritonitis in children is suggested.
