ABSTRACT
Plasma currents of high energy are considered to be very promising in the surgical treatment of modern pathology. The scientists of this country have constructed a portable field surgery apparatus in which a heated atmospheric air assumes a form of a high-temperature thin jet used like a surgeon's scalpel. Experiments and clinical tests proved the efficacy of this microplasmotron that can destroy and coagulate body tissue when treating it with plasma. This new method has, besides hemostatic action, some noticeable antimicrobic effect that leads to acceleration of tissue granulation and wound healing. In specialized and skilled medicare this progressive and priority method should be applied for initial surgical wound treatment, secondary hemorrhage arrests and surgical interventions when a high risk of infection spreading is involved.
