Detoxification in leptospirosis.

Abstract

Extracorporeal detoxification remains an effective method of treating severe forms of leptospirosis. Fulminant forms of the disease require special attention, in which the rate of endotoxicosis growth and the appearance of a hemorrhagic component often make efferent therapy sessions impossible, or become the cause of increased intoxication due to the layering of changes that occur under the influence of the "draining" effect of the detoxification procedure. The aim of the study. To improve the results of leptospirosis treatment by using plasma sorption (PS) as active detoxification.
