title: [The prognostic importance of temperature monitoring in patients with decompensated endotoxicosis].
abstract: As many as 53 patients presenting with bacterial infection and severe endotoxicosis were examined. Frequency of distribution of symptoms of endotoxicosis in deceased patients and survivors was determined together with results of biochemical investigations of blood, with temperature monitoring being conducted of skin temperature in the axillary space, skin of the great toe, and rectum. Detected in the deceased patients was the presence of up to four and more clinical signs of endotoxicosis simultaneously. Significant difference was shown among the deceased patients in respect of metabolic acidosis, level of AlAT and AsAT. Significant increase in the central-peripheral temperature gradient was disclosed in the deceased patients. Prognostic value is shown of the temperature monitoring.
