METHOD FOR DIAGNOSING CEREBROCRANIAL INJURY SEVERITY DEGREE AND DEVELOPMENT COURSE Russian patent published in 2003 - IPC

FIELD: medicine. SUBSTANCE: method involves checking ferritine in patient liquore and blood. The level growing to 170- 190 ng/ml in blood and to 30- 50 ng/ml in liquor with its normalization achieved to 8-14 day, mild cerebrocranial injury severity degree with favorable course without complications is to be diagnosed. Ferritine level growing to 200-210 ng/ml in blood and to 200-220 ng/ml in liquor with normalization achieved to 8-14 day in blood and to 15-21 day in liquor, moderate cerebrocranial injury severity degree with favorable course without complications is to be diagnosed. Ferritine level growing to 460-500 ng/ml in blood and to 280-350 ng/ml in liquor with conservation of this level to 8-14 day in blood and normalization being achieved to 28-32 day in liquor, severe cerebrocranial injury with favorable course without complications is to be diagnosed. The disease course being in progress with inflammatory complication of extracranial localization being added, ferritine level grows to or higher than 465 ng/ml in blood and retains the value or being less than 465 ng/ml in mild or moderate severity degree. Ferritine level grows to 510 ng/ml or higher in blood and retains the value or is less than 510 nmg/ml in the severe cases. The disease course being in progress with inflammatory complication of intracranial localization being added, ferritine level in blood becomes greater than that in liquor and is greater than 465 ng/ml in mild and moderate cases and greater than 510 ng/ml in severe cases. EFFECT: high accuracy of diagnosis.
