[Systemic hemodynamics, oxygenating lung function and oxygen transport in patients with acute intestinal obstruction and an endotoxicosis syndrome].

Abstract

Systemic hemodynamics, oxygenating function of the lungs, and oxygen budgeting were studied in 32 patients with acute bowel obstruction (ABO) with severe endotoxicosis. Profound disturbances of systemic hemodynamics and blood oxygenation in the lungs underlie the hemostasis changes in this category of patients before and early after operation. These hemostasis changes lead to inadequate oxygen delivery and metabolic requirement of oxygen and are associated with development of oxygen deficiency in tissues. As a rule, patients with ABO with severe endotoxicosis develop acute respiratory failure presenting as adult respiratory distress syndrome on days 2-3 postoperation. Significant differences in the pattern of hemostasis changes and compensatory shifts in survivors and patients dying after ABO are detected at this period, which determine the prognosis and outcome of disease.
