title: [The use of modified ultrafiltration in correcting complex congenital heart defects in newborn and nursing infants].
abstract: Modified ultrafiltration (MUF) was used in radical correction of complex congenital heart disease in 61 newborns and infants. The children were divided into 2 groups: group 1, 46 patients subjected to MUF, and group 2, 15 children operated on without MUF. Hemodynamic, hematological, biochemical, and immunological parameters were monitored. MUF in the newborns and infants helped adequately correct the hemohydrobalance due to ultrafiltration in the patient and hemoconcentration of the remaining volume in artificial ventilation device; it normalized the hematocrit values without additional infusion of donor blood. Elimination of inflammation mediators and cytokines recommends MUF for the treatment of newborns and infants.
