[Experience with the use of plasmapheresis in the combined treatment of children with the crush syndrome].
Plasmapheresis (PP) was applied to the treatment of 5 children aged 6-14 years with the crush syndrome. The multimodality treatment using antibiotics, erythrocytic mass, rheologically active preparations, hemodialysis and blood rheologically active preparations, hemodialysis and hemoperfusion carried out for 6-7 days before PP did not bring about any appreciable improvement of the patients' status. The patients failed to get rid of anuria and manifested the signs of increasing intoxication. The treatment with PP consisted of 1 to 6 procedures, in the course of which 70 to 85 of the design volume of the circulating plasma was removed. The use of PP resulted in the disappearance of myoglobin from the patients' blood and urine, in the normalization of the coagulogram, a considerable decrease of the content of medium molecules, and in the appearance of the first urine towards the end of the procedure. Thus, the introduction of PP into multimodality treatment of the crush syndrome made it possible to eliminate anuria, disseminated intravascular coagulation, and to noticeably reduce intoxication and to clear the blood off myoglobin.
