title: [Early therapy of an apallic syndrome in childhood].
abstract: The various phenomenal forms of apallic syndromes are described from an etiological point of view, and it is shown that remission may be expected only in cases of apallic syndromes occurring as a result of acute traumatic, inflammatory, and metabolic and toxic processes. It is only in such cases that the use of all available means of reanimation treatment is fully justifiable. The most important aspects of maintaining vital functions especially in the initial stage as well as in the transitional phase of the apallic syndrome are described by the authors who also emphasize the necessity for continuous integrative cooperation between anesthetists and specialists in pediatric neuropsychiatry.
