[The possibilities for predicting the course and outcome in peritonitis patients].
Based on a retrograde study of clinical case material, covering the period 1989-1993, and MPI modification, a coefficient of correlation = 0.661054 and standard error = 0.297438 are calculated for all peritonitis patients, whereas in those where all examination criteria are available the coefficient of correlation = 0.742431 and the standard error = 0.344041. This enables high-degree prognostication, as early as during the operation, of the course and outcome of treatment in each individual patient, and accordingly, resorting to a more aggressive tactics and procedures in the patients at risk.
