  • Title: [Evaluation of the effect of extracorporeal ultraviolet irradiation of the autoblood of patients in terminal states based on indices of cellular immunity].
    Author: Lirtsman IV, Filiukova OB.
    Journal: Anesteziol Reanimatol; 1991; (2):37-9. PubMed ID: 1862986.
    Abstract:
    The article presents the results of the effect of extracorporeal autoblood ultraviolet irradiation (UVI) on the parameters of cellular immunity in pyo-septic complications of terminal conditions. To assess the activity of neutrophils the technique determining spontaneous and stimulated chemiluminescence with the calculation of activation index was used. The necessity of the control over immunologic parameters during selection of methods and time of UVI procedure is stressed. It has been established that UVI in patients with most severe conditions does not cause a sufficient increase in metabolic neutrophil reserve, which may account for the technique inadequacy in some cases.
