[Endogenous toxicity in acute hepatic failure and ways of eliminating it]

The structure of causes of the endogenous intoxication in 39 patients with acute hepatic insufficiency is studied. Eleven toxic compounds of an organic nature were found responsible for genesis fo the disorders and outcomes of acute hepatic insufficiency. Possible use of hemosorption and hyperbaric oxygenation for the elimination of toxic products is analysed. A combination of them is proved to be expedient. The selectivity of sorption for each toxin separately in various types of hepatic insufficiency is established.
