[Assessment of the immunological reactivity of the body using skin tests with bacterial antigens in patients suffering from severe trauma].
The dependence of cell-mediated reaction to antigens on circulation and respiration in traumatic shock has been established in two groups (60 patients each) during resuscitation, using skin tests with 5 bacterial antigens (Ps. aeruginosa, E. coli, Proteus, tuberculin, staphylococcus). Patients with trauma and decompensation of vital body functions are at high risk of infectious complications, as they are characterized by anergy, i.e. the absence of cell-mediated reactions to antigens, which leads to a higher incidence of infectious complications in them. Skin tests with bacterial antigens serve as a reliable and simple method for identification of patients at high risk of infectious complications in intensive care units.
