    Abstract:
    The study was made of lipid peroxidation (LPO) and antioxidant system (AOS) in 50 victims with a severe compound trauma regarding the patients' condition assessed by APACHE II scale at admission to a critical care unit. It is shown that disorders in the system LPO-AOS depend on severity of the trauma and manifest most obviously in most severe trauma, therefore the degree of LPO-AOS imbalance is a significantly informative criterion of pathobiochemical disturbances. The coefficient K, the indicator of imbalance in the system LPO-AOS, is proposed as a pathogenetically sound criterion of the assessment of the patient's condition severity in the victims with a severe compound trauma.
