Changes in the Morphologic State of Red Blood Cells in Patients With Polytrauma

Abstract

The measurement of RBC indices is of particular importance as an indirect intermediate component of the recovery process after exposure to hypoxia, ischemia, hypothermia in patients with traumatic disease due to polytrauma. The aim of this study was to evaluate the parameters of the morphologic state of red blood cells as a reaction of patients with traumatic disease. Materials and methods.A prospective study was carried out evaluation of 120 patients suffering from polytrauma. The patients were divided into 3 groups according to the principle of using additional substances as a part of IC. The parameters of morphologic state of red blood cells were studied. Results and discussion. The course of acute and early periods of traumatic disease has accompanied variability morphological forms of red blood cells, as evidenced by a decrease in MCV and RDW increased levels of the 3rd to 5th day. The optimized therapy used in the treatment of patients, has a positive effect on the parameters of red blood cells, contributes to a better recovery of red blood cells after hypoxia resulting multiple trauma. Conclusion. The study has demonstrated variations in the morphologic properties of red blood cells in the acute and early period of traumatic disease, as confirmed by pathological changes of the erythrocyte indices. The administration of the proposed therapy with the use of D-fructose-1.6-diphosphate sodium salt of hydrate has a positive effect on the parameters of red blood cells, contributes to a better recovery after hypoxia resulting multiple trauma. Given this, the calculations of the red blood cell indices may carry additional diagnostic information, which allows identify trends for not obvious pathological changes and quality of treatment.
