title: [The anesthesiological support for limb segment replantations (20 years' experience)].
abstract: Anesthesias for urgent replantations of the limb segments in 1980-1998 are analyzed. A retrospective analysis of case histories and protocols of anesthesia of patients aged 16-64 years is carried out. Specific features of anesthesia for surgery of this kind are demonstrated. The authors suggest an algorithm of preoperative treatment of patients, determined by the severity of injury, and discuss the choice of anesthesia: variants of regional anesthesia, balanced anesthesia based on conduction blocking, and balanced anesthesia with forced ventilation of the lungs. Special attention is paid to components of anesthesia which regulate adequate bloodflow in revascularized segments of the limbs: infusion-transfusion therapy with attaining the hypervolemic hemodilution, maintenance of thermal homeostasis, prevention of "toxic shock" during incorporation of the replanted segment into the bloodflow, and strategy of patient's awakening after long operation and anesthesia.
