[Morphofunctional characteristics of erythrocytes in extracorporeal efferent detoxication]

The erythrocyte morphology (scanning electronic microscope, the superficial erythrocyte charge, the lipid peroxidation rate and the blood viscosity were investigated in 78 patients, treated by use of hemodyalisis, hemosorbtion, plasmosorbtion and hyperbaric oxygenation to correct the chronic renal insufficiency and the purulent intoxication. The described erythrocyte changes reflect the features of definite kind of the efferent treatment and the program of its use, the individuality of the patient initial state. The efferent methods of treatment cause significant and mostly differently directed changes in the peripheral red blood. Morphologic and functional parameters of the erythrocytes appear to be important diagnostic criteria of the efficiency of the extracorporal methods of detoxication.
