[The crystal-optic method as an objective criterion for assessment of the course of the wound process in parturient women].

The structure was studied of biological media (blood, wound exudation, biopsy specimen from the wound) in 119 parturient women presenting with suppurating wounds to diagnose the course of the wound process, using the method of polarization microscopy. The biological material was taken before the treatment, during its course, and after the treatments administered. Based on the studies made the authors have come to the conclusion that the crystallooptic method reflects the bodily state of the women in labour validating the pathogenesis of the pyoinflammatory diseases; it is helpful in following the change of phases of the wound process, showing efficiency of treating purulent wounds, rejuvenation of tissues in the wound toward their primary functional state.
