title: [The fat embolism syndrome in severe combined traumas].
abstract: The authors discuss problems of prognosis, prophylactics, diagnosis and treatment of syndrome of fat embolism in severe combined traumas. On the basis of great statistical material a scale for prognosis of the risk of the development of the syndrome directly at the admission of the patient has been developed and a system of prophylactic measures is proposed started since the fist hours at the hospital. A scale for diagnosis has been proposed for diagnosis of the developed fat embolism syndrome. An original scheme of treatment is proposed. The schemes of prophylactics and treatment of the fat embolism syndrome as applied to a great number of patients allowed the frequency of occurrence of the syndrome to become three times less, and lethality of patients with the developed syndrome was more than two times less.
