Popis: Summary Data are presented which may support the concept that the addition of ACTH and cortisone therapy to wellindicated antibiotic therapy in patients suffering from severe infections results in reduction of morbidity and mortality in such patients. Such combined therapy should be used with a full knowedge of the potential hazards as well as the potential assets involved.
