[Effect of blood transfusion therapy on the course of suppurative septic diseases in children].

The authors have studied the influence of different variants of hemotransfusion therapy on the course of pyo-septic diseases in 189 children aged from 1 month to 14 years. Positive effects of blood transfusions on the parameters of the peripheral blood, homeostasis and coagulating system as well as the stimulating effect on the bone-marrow blood formation and the immune defense system were demonstrated.
