Introduction. The article presents findings which may be useful for solving an urgent medical problem on the adequacy of anesthetic management during planned surgical interventions in children with abdominal pathology. Purpose. To compare the effectiveness of combined multimodal anesthesia and multicomponent neuroleptanalgesia in abdominal interventions in children by evaluating central and peripheral hemodynamics. Material and methods. 96 children, aged 1-17, who had various surgical pathologies and were operated on, were examined. In 52% of patients (n = 50), a combined multimodal anesthesia with Propofol, Fentanyl, epidural anesthesia and Sevoflurane was used (main group 1); and in 48% of patients (n = 46), a multicomponent neuroleptanalgesia with Droperidol and Fentanyl combined with epidural anesthesia was used (control group 2) . Results. Trial findings showed that hemodynamics stability is determined by a differential blockade of sympathetic fibers and by a gradual development of epidural block at the level of segmental innervation of surgical intervention zone, thus preventing disorders in parameters of central hemodynamics. Conclusion. The combined multimodal anesthesia as a part of epidural block and inhalation anesthesia with Sevoflurane contributes to a high controllability of anesthesia, to the smooth course of the most traumatic stage, early enteral nutrition, early activation and rehabilitation of patients, starting from the first hours in the intensive care unit, which is an important factor in the prevention of postoperative complications.

The aim of the study was to enhance the efficiency and safety of the combined methods of anesthesia using propofol and epidural anesthesia for the abdominal surgery in children by assessing the hemodynamic regulation of the heart rhythm and the clinical course of anesthesia. Materials and methods. We studied children aged of 1 to 14 years operated for diseases and malformations of the abdominal cavity. To ensure the anesthetic protection in 57% of affected children there was used combined epidural anesthesia by bupivacaine combined with propofol and fentanyl in cases from the 1 (main) group and in 43% of affected children there was applied the combined anesthesia by fentanyl and droperidol with lidocaine epidural anesthesia - 2 (control) groups. Results The results showed the relative stability of the patients providing adequate pain relief after the surgery in children. Use of a combination of drugs: early fentanyl analgesic effect develops, whereas propofol implements its action later, and provides a prolongation of analgesia. Propofol, fentanyl with epidural analgesia bupivacaine for analgesic effect appeared to be several times higher than methods of neuroleptanalgesia.

Aim of the study was assess both the effectiveness and safety of anesthetic management and optimizing postoperative anesthesia under conditions of multimodal anesthesia and analgesia during abdominal operations in children. Patients and methods. The authors examined 58 children aged 1 to 17 years with abdominal operations (malformations, diseases, and abdominal organ injuries). To ensure anesthetic protection, patients underwent combined general anesthesia with propofol and fentanil (induction) with inhalation of sevoflurane + propofol intra venous (maintenance) in combination with epidural blockade with bupivacaine. Results. According to surgical intervention, the arrangement of perioperative analgesic protection provided a favorable correction of the hemodynamic status of patients, a decrease in inhalation anesthetic, promoted a smooth course of the postoperative period, a long painless period, an excellent psychoemotional background, and rapid postoperative recovery.

The aim: Optimization of diagnostics and schemes of pathogenetic intensive therapy of surgical sepsis in children based on clinical and laboratory criteria and bacteriological monitoring. Materials and methods: The research period is 2018-2020. The object of the study (n=73) – children with surgical pathology (widespread peritonitis, bacterial destruction of the lungs, post-traumatic brain hematomas, abdominal trauma, etc.). Research methods: microbiological monitoring to determine the sensitivity of the microorganism to antibiotics was carried out before and at the stages of treatment (sputum, urine, wound, bronchoalveolar lavage, tracheal aspirate, blood, contents from drainages, wound surface). Determination of the sensitivity of the isolated strains to antibiotics was carried out by the disk-diffusion method. To determine predictors of sepsis in surgical patients, clinical (mean arterial pressure (mAP), heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), SpO2, etc. and laboratory parameters on days 1–2 (up to 48 hours) of sepsis identification, days 4 and 8 of intensive therapy. Procalcitonin was determined by immunofluorescence on a Triage® MeterPro analyzer (Biosite Diagnostics, USA). Blood gases and electrolytes were analyzed using a Stat Profile CCX analyzer (Nova Biomedical, USA). Results: studies have shown the effectiveness of complex intensive care in 86.3 % of cases. Mortality was found in 13.7 % of cases. Patients with severe surgical pathology died: widespread peritonitis, severe TBI + coma with irreversible neurological disorders, urosepsis against the background of chronic renal failure, after repeated surgical interventions, due to the development of refractory septic shock (SS). Conclusions. Early diagnosis of sepsis, rational early ABT under the control of microbiological monitoring, non-aggressive infusion therapy with early prescription of vasopressors (SS) with constant monitoring of the child's main life support organs contribute to an improvement in sepsis outcomes and a decrease in mortality
