title: [The use of substitute surfactant therapy in treating acute destructive pneumonia in children].
abstract: The article presents results of employment of replacement surfactant therapy with the exogenous surfactant preparation sukrim as treatment of the infiltrative-destructive form of acute purulent destructive pneumonia in children. Based on clinical, laboratory, and roentgenological findings a comparative evaluation was done of the course of disease in 20 patients having received substitution surfactant therapy and in 25 those having not been given it. Employment of the preparation suchrim and a short-term course of antibiotic therapy combined in treatment of acute destructive pneumonia in pediatric patients proved to be a highly efficient treatment option for this pathology.
