[Difficulties in the treatment of wound infection and complications of suppurative wounds].

The investigation of sepsis and a number of complications of purulent wounds in 336 patients has shown the expediency to distinguish three stages of the microbial and metabolic toxemia. The third stage of toxemia is found to be the most dangerous (terminal) one. The lethality rate by the data of different scientists can reach 95%. The effective antiseptic method was found to be microvasoplegy, forced antiseptics (antibiotics) with forced diuresis or peritoneal dialysis. The third stage of toxemia with multiple metastases gave poor results after treatment by all the routine methods.
