Abstract:
The dynamics of impedance values of the small and large intestine, parietal peritoneum, and greater omentum was analyzed during different periods of experimental acute intestinal obstruction. The impedance was below the normal, which indicated progressive microcirculatory disorders and necrosis of the intestinal wall. The histomorphological picture of healing of anastomoses created after resection of the intestine with consideration for bioimpedance values and of anastomoses created after resection of the intestine in a priori viable tissues virtually did not differ.
