[Enterosorption with pectin-containing medication in the treatment of peritonitis]
Unlabelled:
One hundred and fifty patients aged 19 to 86 years with general peritonitis mainly in a toxic (85.3%) stage were examined. The leading causes of peritonitis were acute appendicitis (24.0%) and perforation of gastroduodenal ulcers (21.3%). Three groups of patients were formed with a pair samples method for a comparative analysis of treatment
Results:
The control group of patients was treated conventionally. Entero-sorption was performed through naso-intestinal tube with well-known carbonic sorbent UAO-A and pectin-containing medication made of red beet. The results were compared. A 1.3-fold decrease in entero-paresis naso-intestinal intubation duration, a relief in severity of the patients' condition by SAPS scale as early as on day 2, improvement of immunity indices, faster reduction of toxicity of blood plasma and leukocytic index of intoxication, a 12% decrease in postoperative pneumonia morbidity and postoperative lethality from 14 to 6.6% demonstrated advantages of entero-sorption with pectin-containing medication.
