METHOD FOR PREDICTION OF INTRAUTERINE FOETUS INFECTION ACCOMPANYING AGGRAVATED CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE BRONCHITIS IN FEMALES SUFFERING A (H3N2) INFLUENZA ON THEIR SECOND TRIMESTER OF GESTATION Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC G01N33/53 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: aggravated chronic obstructive bronchitis in the females suffering A(H3N2) influenza on their second trimester of gestation is analysed by paired blood serums. The first blood serum (titre) (A) is analysed for the content of anti-influenza antibodies; there are also measured the differences of maximal temperature at the height of the disease on the 2^nd-4^th day and maximal body temperature on the 6^th-8^th day of the diseases (B) and the variations of the average-molecular peptide concentrations at the height of the disease on the 2^nd-4^th day and on the 6^th-8^th day of the diseases (optical density units) (C). A discriminant equation is used to calculate a discriminant function D: D=-0.063×A+2.386×B+294.340×C. If D is equal to 4.54 or more, the absence of the intrauterine foetus infection is predicted, while D less than 4.54 enables predicting the intrauterine foetus infection in the females diagnosed with the above.

EFFECT: using the method provides a probability of the correct prediction, enables the well-timed therapeutic measures aiming at the prevention of the intrauterine infection in aggravated chronic obstructive bronchitis in the females with A influenza on their second trimester of gestation.
