[The functional properties of thrombocytes in patients with suppurative peritonitis]

An examination of 49 patients with local and diffuse purulent peritonitis at different stages of surgical treatment has shown that the pyodestructive process in the abdominal cavity develops against the background of thrombocytosis, thrombocyte destruction, their decreased energy resources and tendency to retarded and irreversible aggregation. To correct the disturbed aggregation properties of thrombocytes the HBO and intraaortal infusions of antiaggregants and vasoactive drugs may be used.
