[Results of the treatment of open heart injuries at a central regional hospital].
In a period of 10 years seven patients with open injury to the heart were treated. Their ages ranged from 17 to 39 years. One patient had a gunshot injury, in six the injury was inflicted with a knife. In three patients the injuries were combined (concurrent injury to the lung in 2 and to the diaphragm in one) and in four isolated. Perforating injury of both ventricles and damage of the interventricular septum were found in one case. All patients underwent emergency closure of the heart wounds with an atraumatic synthetic thread and drainage of the pleural cavity. Complications developed in the postoperative period in six patients: suppuration of the operative wound in one and pericarditis in five. One patient died. Analysis of the obtained data testifies to the expediency of two-stage treatment with rehabilitation in cardiological departments. This shortens the period of rehabilitation of patients with open injuries to the heart treated in a central regional hospital.
