SIN MAYOR, Adriana et al. Alteraciones del mecanismo de la fagocitosis en el paciente politraumatizado. Rev Cub Med Mil [online]. 2000, vol.29, n.2, pp. 109-113. ISSN 1561-3046.

A phagocytic assessment of polymorphonuclear neutrophils were carried out in 22 multitrauma patients and 22 healthy subjects in the Immunology Laboratory of "Dr Luis Díaz Soto" Higher Institute of Military Medicine. Opsonophagocytic index was measured in all the participants in the study and opsonized yeasts were subjected to polymorphonuclear leukocytes. The objective of the evaluation was to prove whether there were significant differences between the groups. A marked reduction of phagocytic function was observed in trauma patients compared with healthy subjects and with the reference values. It was demonstrated that trauma produces massive deterioration and impaired immunological activity.
