Electrical injury: characteristic of victims, methods of surgical treatment, microflora of wounds
Abstract
Despite a small share of electric trauma in the structure of burn injuries, it is the most severe and destructive, leading to disability and high mortality. In the work a retrospective analysis of the structure of victims with electric trauma, methods of surgical treatment and composition of microflora wound detachable. Among the patients men predominated. The area of the lesion was 11.5 (3; 30) % of the total body surface area (TBSA), the area of deep burn was 5 (1; 13) % TBSA. 55 patients were operated, 142 surgical interventions were performed. The overall mortality was 12.6 %o, mortality in operated patients was 7.3 %. The age of the patients, the total burn area and the area of deep lesion in the deceased were statistically significantly greater than those of the survivors. Leading pathogens of wound infection in patients with electric trauma were non-fermenting gram-negative bacteria.
