The acute peritonitis treatment optimizing in early postoperative period

The Objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of original physiotherapeutic methods in the treatment of patients with acute spread purulent peritonitis.

Methods and Materials. We done a treatment approach analysis of 72 patients with peritonitis after programmed sanitation of the abdominal cavity. The control group included 42 patients with standardized treatment regimen. The main group consisted of 35 patients. Their treatment included low-intensity laser radiation of the abdominal cavity, electrical stimulation of the duodenum according to the original methods. We evaluated dynamic changes of the blood parameters, endogenous intoxication markers, the functional status of the liver, kidneys, and intestines.

Results. The use of original physiotherapeutic methods in the treatment of patients with acute peritonitis leads to a significant improvement in clinical and laboratory data. The functional status of the liver, kidneys and intestine restored rapidly. Mortality rate decreased from 28.7 to 17.1 % (χ2=1.392, p=0.238), hospital stay decreased by 5.7 hospital days (p<0.05).

Conclusion. The treatment regimen for severe peritonitis leads to a relatively rapid relief of the inflammatory process in the abdominal cavity, as well as the restoration of the functional status of the liver, kidneys and intestine. It largely determines the correction of homeostatic indicators, including reducing the severity of endogenous intoxication.
