[The effect of enterosorption on the severity of endogenous intoxication in burns]

The severity of burn toxemia mainly depends on the blood level of endotoxins, produced by bowel bacteria. The dynamics of endotoxemia have its supreme expression at the first day of burn injury. Enterosorption promotes significant decrease in blood concentrations of endotoxins and middle molecular mass peptides, depression of their cytological action, improvement of glycogen- and protidin-synthetizing hepatic function.
