The First Stage Reconstruction of the Soft Tissue Defects of Gunshot Wounds

Abstract

The aim. To investigate and used a multimodal diagnostic scheme during the first stage of reconstructive surgical treatment of wounded with soft tissue defects at the second level of medical care.Materials and methods. By identifying thermographic areas with gunshot wounds of the soft tissues, we observed at the second level of medical care during 4 months of 2020 (from March to July) 37 cases.Results. We used a multimodal scheme in the pre-, intra- and postoperative period helps to reduce the area of defects in 23 (62.2%) cases out of 37 against the background of restoration and preservation of microcirculation in the damaged structure, and the number of subjectively unsatisfactory military personnel in 4 (12.8%) of the total the number of wounded, a decrease in the loss of functional ability in 19 (51.2%) cases.Conclusions. The combination of dynamic digital thermography in combination with an audio doppler at the second level of medical care can improve the quality of primary surgical treatment by performing surgery with clear indications of the proposed technique; maintain a larger volume of viable tissues, reduce the area of the defect and the number of complications in the further treatment of the wounded.
