Results of clinico-physiological, pathobiochemical, immunological and hemocoagulative studies performed at the postshock period in 186 patients with battle wounds have shown their coincidence with data obtained in critical mechanical trauma of peace-time. A conclusion is made that critical gunshot wounds are followed by trauma disease having main regularities similar to those in a critical mechanical trauma of peace-time. One can speak only about specific features of battle injuries, but to distinguish "wound disease" as an independent clinical form is thought to be illegal.

Comment[A procedure for infusion-transfusion therapy and autohemodilution in severe trauma and shock (apropos the article by B. N. Salamatin et al., The use of the "internal autotransfusion" method in complex shock-control measures at the prehospital stage)].
The infusion of hypertonic solution is thought by the authors to be effective due to its reflectory action for treatment of patients who are in the state of anaphylactic and cardiogenic shock. This method seems to be expedient for massive blood loss under conditions of prehospital medical aid to victims with very low level of arterial pressure, with craniocerebral trauma and critical trauma of the chest.
