[State of the respiratory function in closed thoracic trauma]
Abstract:
The article deals with the function of external ventilation and respiration mechanisms in patients with closed traumas of the chest accompanied by fractures of ribs. The data were taken at the moment of admission and following the conservative treatment. The respiration biomechanics and functional indices of lungs in all the patients on admission were considerably disturbed. After treatment they were found to improve, still remaining considerably decreased. After discharge the patients need dispensary follow-up and therapy aimed at the repair of the respiratory function.
