FIELD: medicine; medical engineering.

SUBSTANCE: means is composed of spherical and close-to-spherical 500-3000 mcm large microgranules. Microgranule matrix has at least one cross-linked polymer and fillers. The cross-linked polymer is taken as sodium alginate, or gelatin, or pectin, or carraginan, or agar-agar, or sodium salt of carboxycellulose, or copolymer of acrylic acid and butylacrylate, or their mixtures. The fillers are hyperosmolar, antiseptic, anesthetic and, when required, antioxidant compounds. Method involves placing microgranules into pyoinflammatory lesion focus through postoperative or fresh wound. Wound cavity space is filled with microgranules to not more than one-half of its volume.
