title: [Prevention and treatment of postoperative broncho-pulmonary complications with ultrasonic aerosols].
abstract: The method and results of applying ultrasonic aerosols in 485 patients, operated upon on abdominal organs, are presented. Ultrasonic aerosols were included in the complex of prophylactic and therapeutic measures in the postoperative period. Prophylactic measures were started immediately after patient's being returned from the operating room. Special attention was given to patients in whom ventilatory disturbances developed during anesthesia, to patients with obesity, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, pneumosclerosis and also those, who negated the rationality of prophylactic measures. The use of finely dispersed aerosols after the method suggested by the authors allowed a 6 times reduction in the incidence of pulmonary complications and more than twice shortening of the postoperative pneumonia course.
