[Therapeutic effectiveness of gelvisol in acute hemorrhage].

The results of a comparative study of the effect of the gelvisol therapeutic solution for the peroral administration, elaborated by A. N. Filatov, L. G. Bogomolova, V. S. Suslova and I. G. Andrianova in 1971, upon the clinical course of acute blood loss are summed up in this article. Experimentally on 50 dogs it was shown that at the loss of 40% of CBV the hemodynamic effect of gelvisol administration exceeds that of intragastral administration of 5% glucose, but is not as good as intravenous gelatinol injection. In the clinic gelatinol has been used successfully in 50 cases of blood loss equal to 10-12 ml/kg of body weight. No complications due to the administration of the preparation are noted.
