[Aspects of blood aggregation in thoracic gunshot wounds with lung injury]

Under study there were 14 patients with injuries of the lungs of gunshot origin and 30 mongrel dogs with a gunshot wound of one of the hemithoraxes involving the lung. It was established that the posttraumatic period was developing against the background of deeply disturbed hemoaggregation. These disturbances are aggravated with the formation of pyoseptic complications. Synthetic antihypoxic agents may be used as one of hemocorrectors.
