Neurological aspects of reanimatology.

The science of resuscitation and correspondingly the more effective methods of death management have come up to the place of a century-old, as a rule, empirical struggle for the life of a dying human being. Mechanisms of dying and resuscitation have become the objects of comprehensive scientific research. Studies of the mechanisms of genesis of hypoxia and posthypoxic pathology of the brain have allowed us to reveal the whole complex of postischaemical factors participating in the development of post-resuscitation encephalopathies, among which the leading ones are the changes in the energy formation processes, disorders in protein and phospholipid metabolism, activation of proteolysis enzymes and changes in the state of membrane systems of neurons.
