Review Comparative Study[Clinical experience with the use of gelofusin (gelatin) in anesthesiology, resuscitation and intensive care].
Published reports on the use of colloid plasma substitute gelofusin, widely used in practical anesthesiology, intensive care, and resuscitation, are analyzed. The drug is characterized by positive effects on the hemodynamic status and oxygen-transporting function of circulation, with the minimum side effects. ⋯ Gelofusin is preferable for use in patients with cardiac failure and marked dehydration. No negative effect on renal function and blood clotting system, even in infusions in high volume, are its positive qualities.

Comparative Study[Blood loss compensation during surgery of abdominal aortic aneurysms].
Two methods of intraoperative compensation of blood loss in patients with aortic aneurysm are compared in 30 patients: transfusion of donor blood preparations and reinfusion of washed autoerythrocytes. Changes in hemostasis system, central hemodynamics, and oxygen transport were analyzed. Reinfusion of washed autoerythrocytes proved to be more safe and involved no serious complications.

[Use of lornoxicam for analgesia in the early postoperative period].
Lornoxicam was used for analgesia in 64 patients on days 1-2 after extensive interventions. The drug efficiency and safety were evaluated depending on the dose and route of administration. Intravenous infusion of lornoxicam in a daily dose of 24 mg (basic therapy) did not involve the use of opioids in 35% patients and its analgesic effect was higher than that of promedol monotherapy. Combined therapy with lornoxicam and promedol allows reduction of promedol dose by 25-50% and the incidence of untoward effects by 27-44%.
