PREDICTORS OF FATAL OUTCOME IN PATIENTS WITH HEMORRHAGIC SHOCK IN GASTROINTESTINAL BLEEDING

Abstract

This work aimed to reveal the statistically reliable clinical and laboratory markers, which are associated with fatal outcomes in patients with hemorrhagic shock of the III degree on the stage of hospital treatment. It was stated that decrease of body temperature (till 35,9 °C), pH of venous blood (till 7,19) and content of ionized calcium (till 0,32 mmole/l) in venous blood and increase of lactate content (up to 4,1 mmole/l) in venous blood and rise of activated partial thromboplastin time (up to 59 sec) are connected with fatal outcomes.
