    Author: Sheianov SD, Ul'chenko VIu, Shashkov BV.
    Journal: Voen Med Zh; 1993 Aug; (8):31-5, 79-80. PubMed ID: 8236878.
    Abstract:
    On the basis of experimental and clinical researches the authors has found out that the sorption via wound using activated carbonic fibrous material if started at an early post shock period could be considered as an effective method of treatment of severe mechanic injuries with a vast wound surface. This method contributes to the favourable outcome of local wound healing and diminishes the number of complications mainly of purulent-septic nature. The positive influence of sorbent applied directly on wound after surgical treatment consists in promoting tissue metabolism, and reducing the risk of inflammatory processes. There are straight manifestations of general detoxicating effect: diminishing of catabolism processes, reducing of toxic metabolite concentration, stimulating of immune system, falling the rate of toxemia. As a result the number of complications has diminished 40%, and the number of lethal cases--15%.
