Abstract:
Results of the treatment of 90 patients with generalized peritonitis and syndrome of intestinal insufficiency were analyzed. In the study group (45 patients) enteral administration of 1% pectin solution and glutamin solution (15-30 g/day) were included in combined therapy. Clinical and laboratory control, radiation monitoring and bacteriological studies carried out for evaluation of efficacy of therapy established. A decrease of endogenous intoxication and time of repair of functional activity of the gastrointestinal tract, immunomodulation, normalization of microbiocenosis of the small intestine.
