[The reaction to heparin in patients with burn toxemia during extracorporeal detoxification]
Abstract:
The comparison of sensitivity to heparin before hemosorption in burn patients with high level of the blood middle molecular peptides before the operation on the heart in patients with rheumatic cardiac defect without changes in the blood peptide level was carried out. In the model experiments, the influence of a fraction of the middle molecular peptides obtained from the blood of healthy and burned dogs on the effects of heparin and protamine sulfate, and as well on thrombocytic aggregation was studied. The role of the middle molecular peptides in the alteration of response to heparin in burn disease is discussed.

The damage results in the death of skin cells, which can lead to a massive loss of fluid. Dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and renal and circulatory failure follow, which can be fatal. Burn patients are treated with intravenous fluids to offset...
