ABSTRACT
The severe course of COVID-19 requires treatment in emergency and intensive care units. Acute respiratory failure due to the development of pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome is the most common and life-threatening manifestation of the new coronavirus infection. Treatment of patients with severe and extremely severe COVID-19; the use of modern schemes and protocols for drug therapy, mechanical ventilation, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; sorption techniques; the use of thermal helium; hemostasis correction; and rehabilitation problems are discussed.
ABSTRACT
The high efficiency of using thermoheliox (inhalation with a high-temperature mixture of helium and oxygen) in the treatment of patients affected by COVID-19 was shown. The dynamics of accumulation of IgG, IgM, and C-reactive protein (CRP) in patients with coronavirus infection in the "working" and control groups was studied experimentally. It was shown that thermoheliox intensifies the synthesis of IgG, IgM, and CRP antibodies, while eliminating the induction period on the kinetic curves of the synthesis of specific antibodies in the IgG form and transfers the synthesis of CRP to a fast phase. The results of experiments confirm the previously obtained data based on the analysis of the kinetic model of the development of coronaviral infection in the human body.

PURPOSE: To assess ischemia-reperfusion injury of renal allograft by microdialysis. DESIGN: A pilot, single-center; prospective study. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The study included 7 patients (4 males and 3 females, average age was 46.71 ± 6.53 years) after cadaveric kidney allograft transplantation (CKA) under general combined anaesthesia. CONCLUSIONS: Microdialysis provides an opportunity of continuous monitoring of metabolic changes in the tissue of transplanted kidney. The main advantage of the monitoring by microdialysis is an opportunity of early identifying of ischemia-reperfusion complications. Thus, early assessment of CKA by microdialysis can be for the improving of patient's treatment in the early post operative period. Further clinical studies must be done to define the role of microdialysis.

This study included 500 patients who had undergone extensive liver resection and transplantation of whom 250 were treated with the use of remedial gymnastics, physiotherapeutic factors, and massage. The positive dynamics of objective characteristics of the patients' condition. None of the treated patients showed a negative response to the proposed program of medical rehabilitation and activation throughout the early postoperative period.

An information concept of nociceptive impulses is proposed. The device for quantitative analysis of information coming to CNS has been constructed and approved. It is demonstrated that monitoring of informative loading of EEG may be used for evaluation of anesthesia adequacy. Level of this index from 40 to 50% corresponds to effective protection.
