[Bleeding as a complication of resuscitation in a case of thromboembolism of the pulmonary artery].

Massive blood shed (1700 ml) from the punction wound in the left ventricle was observed in a patient on 65,000 U heparin. Comatose condition was accompanied by a pronounced lactacidemia of liquor (10 mmol/l) developed due to adrenaline administration with an extremely high glucose level (33 mmol/l--in blood; 11 mmol/l--in liquor). High efficacy of hyperbaric oxygenation in hypoxemic coma has been established.

[Characteristics of the course and complex hyperbaric oxygenation treatment of post-injection infection].

The observation of 32 patients has shown that the presence of all kinds of hypoxia in iatrogenic sepsis determines the complex therapy aimed at all the links of the pathogenetic chain associated with hyperbaric oxygenation. The debridement of the wounds from necrotic patches, appearance of pink granulations were noticed after 5-6 sessions of HBO which could be followed by skin plasty. The following 7-14 sessions of HBO resulted in a good take of the transplanted grafts.

[Toxicity of the cerebrospinal fluid in comas of various etiologies].

The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was examined by chromatography-mass spectrometry in 10 normal subjects and 27 patients with comas of different etiology. The findings included detection of a number of highly toxic intermediate metabolites of intra- and extracerebral origin. Their concentration was dependent on the nature of the condition.
