Summary:The time course of changes in the serum levels of average mass molecules and malondialdehyde in patients with pelvic peritonitis was studied within two weeks after surgery. The values of the above indices of endogenous intoxication (EI) were found to be 1.3-2.9 times higher than the normal values almost throughout the follow-up (p < 0.05). An integral EI coefficient (EIC) including relative (as compared with the normal values) EI indices was proposed to evaluate the magnitude of EI. In patients with pelvic peritonitis, EIC was established to be 2.9-4.8 times greater than the normal values (p < 0.05) in all follow-up periods. Thus, the application of EIC enhances the sensitivity of EI diagnosis in patients with pelvic peritonitis as compared with that in the determination of individual EI indices.
