Involvement of the sympatho-adrenal system in post-abortion septic process

The aim of our work was to study the functional state of the sympathetic-adrenal system in patients with post-abortion sepsis. Thirty-eight patients were examined: 20 with postabortion septicemia, 9 with septic peritonitis and 9 with bacterial shock. All patients recovered in group 1, 2 died in group 2, and 3 died in group 3.
