COMPLICATION OF THERMAL INJURY: BURN SEPSIS

Abstract

Annotation. One of the most severe complications leading to high mortality is sepsis of burn patients, accompanied by the formation of secondary metastatic purulent foci in various organs and tissues. Its development is preceded by bacteremia resulting from the translocation of bacteria from many reservoirs of infection into the bloodstream. An indispensable condition for the formation of secondary foci of infection is the insufficiency of natural immunity factors and immunodeficiency, which develop as a result of a severe burn injury.
