The literature provides about 100 different definitions of the concept of shock(G. Bernard, 2001). A large number of definitions of the concept are directly dependent on the reasons that caused it. Burn shock is the first stage of burn disease and develops when the surface of the body is affected by an area of 10-15% for superficial and 5-10% for deep burns.This article discusses the optimization of intensive therapy for burn shock.Keywords:pathogenesis, stages of burns, treatment principles, Evans formula, criteria for recovery from shock

The state of the hemostasis system was studied in 9 patients of the middle age group (44 ± 9.94 years) who received thermal trauma on an area of more than 32% (49.4 ± 18.3) of the body surface, accompanied by the development of burn shock. The standard therapy for burn injury was supplemented with HBO sessions. Treatment with hyperbaric oxygen was carried out in pressure chambers BLKS-307, BLKS-307/1. The state of the coagulation, anticoagulant and fibrinolytic links of the hemostasis system, as well as the viscoelastic properties of the blood, were assessed immediately before the HBO session and immediately after it. The total number of comparison pairs was 45. Under the influence of HBO therapy, there was an increase in the activity of antithrombin III (ATIII), protein C (PrS) and a decrease in the viscoelastic properties of blood (p <0.05). Positive deviations in the values of ATIII, Pr C, von Willebrand factor, APTT, prothrombin and thrombin time, fibrinogen, factor XIII, XIIa-dependent fibrinolysis, D-dimers and thromboelastography parameters were revealed. The maximum frequency of their occurrence was recorded for ATIII (95%), the minimum - for the D-dimer (62%). After HBO procedures, undesirable deviations of the hemostatic system parameters were also noted. They were chaotic, were compensated by an increase in the activity of physiological anticoagulants and were not accompanied by complications of a thrombogenic nature. Thus, conducting HBO therapy sessions in the acute period of burn disease increases the activity of physiological anticoagulants and stabilizes the viscoelastic properties of blood. There is a high frequency of occurrence of positive effects of hyperoxia on the components of the hemostasis system. The identification of its undesirable effects indicates the need to monitor the state of the hemostasis system during HBO procedures.


Modern treatment of burns has led to a significant reduction in mortality in patients with burns whose injuries were fatal several years ago. However, along with improved survival, new problems arose in the treatment of burn patients. Systemic inflammatory response, capillary leak, sepsis top the list of the most common problems in both adults and children with severe thermal injury. Currently, new strategies are being developed and studied in the treatment of this category of patients. One of the ways to improve the results of treatment of patients with severe burn injury is to prescribe corticosteroids, both in the stage of burn shock and in the development of septic complications. Do corticosteroids reduce mortality and improve recovery in burn patients? The discussion about this has been going on for many years, but the opinion about their effectiveness remains controversial. An analysis of the literature shows that corticosteroids can play a significant role in the treatment of patients with severe burn injury and can be successfully used at any stage of a burn disease. The effect of reducing capillary leakage, increasing myocardial contractility, antiemetic, membrane-stabilizing effect of corticosteroids will be useful in the stage of burn shock. The anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory effect of corticosteroids will play a role in any stage of a burn disease. With the aim of preventing and treating sepsis, corticosteroids may be useful in the stage of toxemia, septicotoxemia. It is also necessary to remember about adrenal insufficiency, which develops in burn patients. The article analyzes the literature, substantiates the use of corticosteroids in patients with severe burn injury in different periods of a burn disease.

In response to burn injury in the body of the child in puberty naturally develop typical pathological processes, which include almost all organs and systems, leads to severe disruption of homeostasis failure of adaptive mechanisms. Burn is the most powerful stress factor that causes changes in the body that are typical of the general adaptation syndrome. The main pathogenesis and peculiarities of typical pathological processes in burn disease significantly affected are determined by the endocrine system. Produce hormones are involved not only in the starting mechanism, but also in the development of compensatory-adaptive reactions, mobilizing the body's protective properties. Thus, a feature of adolescence is that at this age the body undergoes a qualitative change to the restructuring of all systems. There are significant morphological and functional restructuring of important metabolic processes in the body organs like the pituitary gland, adrenal glands, thyroid and pancreas, characterized by high activity of metabolic processes, strengthening of cell and tissue differentiation, intensification of regenerative processes. The consequence is excessive functional activity of organs and systems at rest, associated with low and often paradoxical reactivity to external shocks, including a burn injury, which leads to a decrease in functional and adaptive capabilities of the organism adolescents. All these features to consider when choosing the strategy of surgical treatment of persons puberty, burn victims.

Intention. To study the possibility of predicting early burn sepsis based on the content of proinflammatory cytokines in the peripheral blood of patients with extensive burns.Methodology. The study included 60 patients (of them 37 men) aged 21 to 58 years (mean age 46.8 ± 9.3 years) with extensive skin burns (Degree III burns by ICD 10 from 20 to 60 %, average 34.1 %, of the body surface). Depending on the skin area affected and the course of burn disease, the patients were divided into three groups, each of 20 patients: group 1 - the course of burn disease without early sepsis, burn area from 21 to 40 % of the body surface; group 2 - the course of burn disease without early sepsis, burn area from 41 to 60 % of the body surface; group 3 - the early burn sepsis, burn area of 20 to 60 % of the body surface. To achieve the goal of the study, all the patients underwent sequential peripheral blood sampling 24 and 72 hours after a burn injury. The levels of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, and TNFa were analyzed in the obtained samples. Data were processed using Microsoft Office Excel 2007 and IBM SPSS 20.0 by methods of descriptive and non-parameter statisticsResults and Discussion. The analyzed indicators statistically significantly correlated with the severity of burn injury and the likelihood of burn sepsis. Decreased concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNFα within Days 1-3 after getting a burn suggest a relatively favorable course of burn disease. No significant positive dynamics of these laboratory parameters may indicate a high probability of developing early burn sepsis.Conclusion. Concentrations of IL-1β, IL-6 and, especially, TNFα in the peripheral blood make it possible to predict early burn sepsis.

Introduction. One of the main factors involved in the pathogenesis of burn disease consists in the disturbance of microcirculation and haemostasis, caused by increased platelet aggregation. Mechanisms underlying the enhancement of platelet aggregation are poorly understood. Main results were obtained for adult patients at the onset of the burn disease, with no similar data on paediatric patients being available. There is evidence of a relationship between the size of platelets (MPV) and their functionality.Aim. To undertake a study of spontaneous and ADP-induced platelet aggregation and their size in children with burn disease.Materials and methods. We studied the aggregation and size of platelets in children aged 3–17 years, in whom burn areas covered 10–70 % of the body surface at the onset of the disease and before discharge. Spontaneous platelet aggregation was analysed under conditions of induced shear flow, whereas ADP-induced aggregation was studied employing a turbidimetric method. The study of platelet sizes was carried out using a conductometric method.Results. Spontaneous platelet aggregation increases significantly in children with burn disease. The integrated optical density of the formed aggregates, their area and perimeter were estimated for the first time. These indicators remained elevated even after burn wounds had been completely closed. In burn disease, changes in ADP-induced platelet aggregation were multidirectional in nature. Mean platelet volume (MPV) was increased during the acute period of burn disease, decreased during the period of toxaemia, and normalised by the time of patients’ discharge. Changes in MPV did not affect the aggregation properties of platelets. There was no correlation between the degree of aggregation and the severity of hyperfibrinogenemia. The blood of burn patients contained a large number of activated platelets, which was the reason for the increase in their spontaneous aggregation, not requiring the participation of exogenous inducers.Conclusion. An increase in spontaneous platelet aggregation was observed in children after a thermal injury, which remained elevated until the burn wounds were completely closed. A significant increase in the number of activated platelets constituted the reason for the increase in spontaneous platelet aggregation.Conflict of interest: the authors declare no confl ict of interest.Financial disclosure: the study had no sponsorship.

The ongoing increase of burn trauma rates urges elaboration of valid and effective methods of medical aid with actualization of pathogenetically-based intensive therapy. Burn disease is a peculiar nosologic form characteristic of local manifestations as well as critical systemic state with involvement of internal organs and systems with subsequent development of polyorganic insufficiency. Liver lesions in case of burn disease are multiform and often combine with disturbances of other organs yielding polyorganic insufficiency. Desintoxicating, hepatoprotector and organoprotector effects of succine acid - containing medicines used for prevention of hepatic failure were assessed in the present study in a model of extensive deep burn in comparison with standard therapy. The experiments involved 60 mature albino rats (180-200 g). Deep burns involving 20% of body surface caused hepatic dysfunction. Remaxol and Reamberin infusions’ effects were comparatively assessed. To evaluate desintoxicating and hepatoprotector effects of these medicines biochemical analysis of these rats’ blood serum was carried out on the 7th day after infliction of extensive deep burns. Alanine-aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase activity and bilirubin concentration were assessed. Analyzing desintoxicating and hepatoprotector effects of Remaxol and Reamberin upon the morphologic structure of the liver in case of extensive deep burn one must admit these medicines are capable of moderate desintoxicating and hepatoprotector effects.

Current information on the effects of extensive and deep burns upon the liver functions as well as some novel methods of its correction with succinic acid derivates are reviewed. The liver is the main target organ for extensive burn injuries. Manifestations of cytolytic and cholestatic syndrome were observed already on the first days of the disease. To correct these conditions a comprehensive layout of the infusion of intensive therapy is needed. In burn disease it is impossible to restore the circulating blood volume only by infusion of plasma-substituting solutions. Thus, these cocktails must contain drugs, stabilizing metabolic disorders and reducing the concentration of proinflammatory cytokines. Complex intensive therapy in case of burns should also include correction of energy production within the cells without increasing oxygen transport. Substrate antihypoxic drugs are used in order to reduce the need of tissues for oxygen, stabilization of cell membranes and reduction of lipid peroxidation. Succinic acid is a substrate antihypoxic drug capable of detoxification, antihypoxic, antioxidant and hepatoprotective effects. Its derivates modify cellular respiration, compensate for metabolic acidosis, reducing lactate, pyruvate and citrate concentration, normalize histamine and serotonin concentration, improve microcirculation without affecting systemic hemodynamics. All of these effects are pathogenetically substantiated in the treatment of patients with burns. Data regarding the use of drugs on the basis of succinic acid in the treatment of patients with extensive deep burns, critical and supercritical burns during various periods of burn disease, their influence on the severity of multiple organ dysfunction in these patients, the presence of hepatoprotective effect are reported in a few of publications and their conclusions are so far ambiguous enough.

The aim of the investigation is a determination of diagnostic value of whole blood low-frequency piezoelectric hemocoagulography method (LPH) and its suitability for monitoring the homeostasis functional state during the burn shock. 40 patients with the severe thermal injury and different consequences of burn disease have been examined in development dynamics and intensive burn shock therapy with LPH method and general biochemical tests that reflected the state of vascular platelet and coagulation homeostasis and fibrinolysis components. It has been found that severe burn shock development has been accompanied by significant pathological changes in all hemostasis sections, the rate and severity of which has been connected closely with the outcome of the burn disease. The LPH method is the easiest and most informative one for monitoring the functional states of all hemostasis sections during the dynamic critical state, such as the burn shock.

Burns is the damage of the skin or mucous membranes (often with underlying tissues), because of high-temperature influence (thermal burns), chemical, electrical, radiation, combined, thermochemical and electrothermal factors influence. According to the investigations, burns rank third among other injuries, and in some countries, second, second only to transport injuries. Although the level of survival after burns is increasing, the problem of their treatment remains relevant in modern medicine and pharmacy. The aim was to study the peculiarities and the patterns of morphofunctional changes in the structural components of the heart atria and auricles in case of the experimental thermal trauma. The study involves 30 adult guinea pigs with a bodyweight of 630-670 g. The burn was applied under general ether anesthesia with water vapor at a temperature of 96-97 0C on the surface of the skin of the animal's back for 60 seconds. The size of the lesion area was 18-20% of the body surface. The depth of the lesion corresponded to the degree ІІІА -IIIB. The experimental animals were divided into two groups: the first - intact guinea pigs (6 heads); second - animals with thermal trauma (24 heads). Were used a number of methods of investigation, including macrometric and massometric - to establish the structural restructuring of the heart and its parts, microscopic and electron microscopic to detect changes in the structural components of the atrium and auricle of the heart; morphometric - to obtain quantitative parameters of the morphological components of the heart; mathematical and statistical - to ensure the analysis of the reliability of the research results. In intact guinea pigs, the morphological organization of the heart auricles differs from the atria by the direction of the muscle fibers, the ratio of morphometric parameters of their structural components and the content of muscle endocrine cells. Submicroscopically, endocrine myocytes of the auricles of the heart contain more hormonal granules than atria. In the ears of the heart, the relative volume of connective tissue is 1,34 times greater, and the relative volume of muscle fibers is 1,03 times smaller than in the atria. Submicroscopically, endocrine muscle cells of the heart auricle contain more hormonal granules than atria. It has been established that thermal trauma causes significant morphofunctional changes in the atria and auricles of the heart at different levels of their structural organization. The degree of damage depends on the duration of the experiment and develops against the background of increased plasma toxicity. In the stages of burn shock and early toxemia, adaptive-compensatory processes develop in the structures of the heart, and irreversible destructive changes occur in the stages of late toxemia and septicotoxemia.

Relevance. Thermal burns of the skin cause the development of burns, the main factor of which is endogenous intoxication. The infusion of detoxification solutions is a mandatory component of the treatment of burns, as it corrects its course and prevents the development of certain stages and complications. According to the stage of the burn disease and the different direction of its links in its pathogenesis, infusion therapy should not only restore water-electrolyte balance and detoxify the body, but also contribute to the normalization and stabilization of vital (including immune) body functions. Objective: study of changes in the vessels of the hemo- and lymphomicrocirculatory system of Peyer's patches in burnt rats at the stages of burn disease, under conditions of intravenous infusion of isotonic sodium chloride solution and combined colloidal-hyperosmolar solutions (lactoprotein and sorbitolum). Materials and methods. The experiment was performed on 72 white rats. Experimental animals were divided into 4 groups (18 animals in each group). I, II, III - rats with skin burn trauma, which received a separate infusion of isotonic sodium chloride (I), lactoprotein with sorbitol (II) and hecoton (III), at a dose of 10 ml / kg. IV - intact animals (control group). Simulation of burn disease was performed by inflicting burn injury by applying to the lateral surfaces of the body of animals four copper plates, which were previously kept for 6 minutes in water with a constant temperature of 100 ° C. Histological and electron microscopic examination were performed. Light microscopy was used. Results. Intravenous administration of the applied infusion solutions caused various phase changes of the hemo- and lymphomicrocirculatory tract of Peyer's patches of the ileum of burnt rats, depending on the applied solution. In the case of infusion of burnt rats with 0.9% sodium chloride solution, the negative effects of burn disease were exacerbated, which were manifested by damage to the vascular wall of the hemo- and lymphocapillary channels, resulting in plasma and lymph seepage through the affected areas into the perivascular space. This process was accompanied by a violation of the rheological properties of blood, the formation of edema. The established "membrane-plastic effect" of lactoprotein with sorbitol revealed clear organ-specific features, which had manifestations of penetration through the damaged wall of microvascular electron-dense impregnations, which contributed to a significant thickening of the basement membrane in the wall of the blood capillary formation and its gradual formation of rounded membranous structure. This structure of variable electron density not only strengthened the vascular wall, but also served as a closure, helping to close the vascular lumen at the site of largest damage. The difference between the perinodal lymphatic capillaries in burnt rats infused with lactoprotein and sorbitol is characterized by the phenomenon of "overflow" of the lymphocapillary channel with cells in different functional states. In the case of infusion of hecoton solution, the effect of "overflow" of the lymphocapillary channel was not observed, which indicates adequate implementation of the immune function of immunocompetent cells. Conclusions. Intravenous infusion of colloid-hyperosmolar solutions causes various changes in the hemo- and lymphomicrocirculatory tract of Peyer's patches. Infusion of a  0.9% sodium chloride solution leads to a deepening of the negative consequences of burn disease, which manifests itself in the form of damage to the vascular wall of the hemo- and lymphocapillary channels. Infusion of solutions of lactoprotein with sorbitol and hecoton helps to preserve the vascular wall of the nodular lymphatic capillaries. When a solution of lactoprotein with sorbitol is applied around the damaged vessels of blood capillaries and venules, annular membrane formations are formed, which promote selective recirculation of structurally intact lymphocytes.
