Abstract

Thermal parameters of the therapeutic cooling of burns have been established on the basis of experimental data on thermography and histological examination of tissue preparations from the zones of thermal applications in rats. Cooling in a range of temperatures from −6°C to + 12 °C has been found to yield the maximum therapeutic effect within the first 3 hours post burn. The therapeutic effectiveness of cryotreatment is confirmed by clinical observations and is related to an improvement in local vascular tissue circulation, a decrease in toxicity and post-burn destruction of skin. No adverse effect of cooling on the toxicity indices of blood serum and non-specific reactivity of the organism has been observed.
