title: [Clinical characteristics of the early postshock period in traumatic disease].
abstract: The clinical course of an early (up to 14 days) postshock period of traumatic disease in 112 patients, treated for a combined trauma complicated with shock, has been studied. It has been established that within first 2 days after shock more than half of the patients develop increased coagulative activity of the blood, which rises still more in the following period. Progressive anemia, connected apparently with hemopoietic depression, is characteristic of the postshock period. In the second period (3--14 days after trauma) 60% of examined patients showed hypokalemia. A great percentage of inflammatory complications is likely to be due to the decrease of the defense--adaptative mechanisms, resulting from changes of the reactivity in the injured after shock.
