Abstract
The influence of primary peritoneal drainage (PD) on intra-abdominal pressure dynamics and outcome of treatment of preterm neonates (PN) with severe necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) with very low birth body mass was studied.
The peritoneal drainage reducing intra-abdominal pressure, improves lung and liver function and stabilizes the condition, performs a kind of detoxification by reducing the level of toxic fluid, determines the nature of the weaning, indicating necrosis of the intestinal wall, thus, it definitively diagnoses the perforation. Overall the survival with PD is higher, and it should be assumed that it is preferable in the severe stages of NEC before laparotomy to apply PD, thus avoiding complications associated with direct laparotomy.
