FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: females with threatening miscarriage in the second trimester of gestation and suffering influenza A(H3N2) are examined for the level of antibodies in paired blood serums with the level of antibodies in the first serum (A) used as a reference; the score showing a degree of manifestation of hyperemia of the posterior pharyngeal wall mucosa (B) is determined; the score showing a degree of manifestation of oedema of the posterior pharyngeal wall mucosa (C) is determined; a degree of manifestation of the threatening miscarriage symptoms is determined at temperature more than 37.8°, points (D). A discriminant equation is used to calculate a discriminant function: D=-0.080×A-1.767×B-1.487×C-1.068×D. If D exceeds 10.10, the absence of the intrauterine infection is stated, while D less than 10.10 shows the intrauterine infection.
EFFECT: using the method enables predicting the intrauterine infection accompanying said influenza in the females during the second trimester of gestation with the threatening miscarriage.
