Time course of the immunity system parameters was followed in children suffering from grave endotoxicosis forms treated by discrete plasmapheresis (DPA) as the emergency therapeutic measure. T, T-active, B lymphocytes, O cells, immunoglobulins A, G, M were analyzed, as were the counts of phagocytizing leukocytes and circulating immune complexes. The infectious process was found to lead to a temporary relative secondary immunodeficiency. DPA with perfusion of hyperimmune plasma resulted in rapid correction of all component of the immunity system, paralleled by normalization of the general clinical status of the patients, and prevented chronic transformation of the process. |
