[Hemosorption in the combined treatment of acute 1,2-dichloroethane poisonings]

Carbon hemosorption was carried out in 41 patients suffering of 1,2-dichlorethane intoxication (acute). Complex methods of therapy included also methods of potentiation of natural processes of detoxication, enterosorption, specific antidote treatment with acetylcysteine and vitamin E. Use of hemosorption favoured essential reduction of lethality, decrease of the number of severe complications (exotoxic shock, hepatopathy).
