Modern approaches to the treatment of postpartum purulent-septic diseases

Abstract

The cohort prospective comparative study showed improvement of the management of patients with various forms of purulentseptic diseases (PSD). The study included 276 women with PSD admitted to the gynecological hospital from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2016. The patients were divided into two cohorts depending on the clinical course, management, and outcomes, which corresponded to the clinical forms of PSD: uncomplicated and complicated. The parameters that were evaluated in patients in both groups included complaints, pregnancy course and childbirth, duration of manifestations of the disease, the clinical picture, laboratory parameters. The study resulted in the development of an algorithm for management of patients with PSD including lavage of the site of infection, adequate antibiotic therapy depending on the type of pathogen, infusion and anticoagulant therapy, and treatment of vaginitis. The developed algorithm for management of patients with various forms of postpartum PSD allowed all 276 (100%) participants to preserve reproductive function and avoid early postoperative complications.
