Abstract: 

The actuality of the problem of thermal trauma is determined by its high prevalence. Severe disorders of central, regional and peripheral hemodynamics are developing with a predominant violation of microcirculation and metabolic processes in the body during burn disease. Promising NO donors suitable for biomedical use are dinitrosyl iron complexes (DNIC). The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of DNIC on the state of microcirculation in normal conditions and on the model of combined thermal trauma (CTT). The experiments were carried out on white male rats of the Wistar line. CTT (contact burn on the area of 20% of the body surface and thermal inhalation exposure to hot air and combustion products for 20-30 seconds) was applied under anesthesia. Animals with CTT were treated daily with intraperitoneal injections of a 10% DNIC solution (1 ml; 0.3 micromol/l). Laser Doppler flowmetry was used to assess the dynamics of the microcirculation state. The physiological and biochemical mechanisms of microcirculation disorders in CTT are revealed in the work. There was an increase in the endothelial, neurogenic and respiratory components of microcirculation, microhemodynamics of the border area of the burn, and the index of the microcirculation bypass. It was shown that when using 0.3 micromol/l of DNIC in rats under normal conditions, there is a decrease in the neurogenic and respiratory components, an increase in perfusion and the myogenic component of the microcirculatory channel. The role of 0.3 micromol/l of DNIC in the normalization of microcirculation in CTT was established.
