Abstract
The outcomes of the 51 patients with blunt abdominal trauma after the car crash treated in the district hospital were analyzed. 25 patients in a basic group, underwent surgery during which the distant specialist consultation was led via Telemedicine. Telemedicine allowed the specialist surgeon clearly evaluate the degree of the spleen injury and give a suggestion to conduct the organ-preserved operation. In a control group, patients with spleen injury underwent the conventional splenectomy. The short- and long-term outcomes in the basic group were better than in the control group. Telemedicine served as a good tool for performing organ-preserved surgeries in the district hospital and improving the outcomes of patients with intra-abdominal hemorrhage.
