[Pre-hospital resuscitation in injuries and asphyxia under emergency conditions]

The article is based on the materials of special reanimation units of Leningrad Emergency Medical Care Centre. The reanimation measures undertaken in a group of 420 patients with grave trauma and shock of the 1--IV grade are described. An efficacy of respiratory reanimation per se was studied in a separate group of patients (102) after strangulation asphyxia. A scheme of a special medical car intended for reanimation is being suggested.
