  • Title: [Debatable questions of local treatment of the severe form of the prolonged crush syndrome].
    Author: Shraer TI, Krichevskiĭ AL.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1981 Jul; 127(7):73-8. PubMed ID: 7292858.
    Abstract:
    The experience of treatment of severe (41) and light (48) forms of crush syndrome enabled the authors to come to the main conclusion that so far there are no effective means for the local treatment of crushed extremities and prevention of acute renal insufficiency. According to their conviction, the degree of crush syndrome should be taken into consideration when choosing a kind of local therapy. An assessment of such methods as continuous immobilization, elastic dressing, hypothermia, amputation, fasciotomy and myotomy is given.
