[30 years' experience in using Pervomur in surgical practice by the author's own method].

Abstract

The 30 years experiences with using Pervomur for sterilization of surgical materials, surgeon's hands and the operation area in the clinic and other medical institutions of the country have shown its high decontaminating effect which can be obtained in short time. It is of special significance in cases of mass admittance of patients in military operations, in the mountain-desert and distant localities, during disasters as well as when performing surgical interventions on ships under conditions of autonomous cruise. Pervomur is considered to be a fairly perspective antiseptic. Pervomur having no negative effects on the living tissue, its weaker solutions can be successfully used for local treatment of purulent wounds and for irrigation of purulent cavities, especially those infected by polybacterial flora.
