    Abstract:
    The paper gives the results of studying the body's water sectors by the polysegmental bioimpedance assay in 53 patients with acute poisoning of varying severity by psychotropic agents. It shows it expedient to use this assay to identify early water imbalance and to evaluate the efficiency of therapeutic measures. A primary reaction to acute chemical injury has been ascertained to be characterized by a predominant accumulation of cellular fluid. Progressing extracellular hyperhydration accompanied by increased cellular fluid volumes within the first 3 days after the time of intoxication should be considered to be a poor sign in critically ill patients.
