METHOD FOR PREDICTING ROSS' OPERATION RESULT

FIELD: medicine, functional diagnostics, cardiology. ^ SUBSTANCE: on isolating the trunk of pulmonary artery one should measure circulation in its wall with the help of a laser-doppler flowmeter to detect average value of microcirculation, root-mean-square and interval of deviation against average value. Then one should detect average value of microcirculation and the value for circulation decrease after replacing the trunk of pulmonary artery into aortic position. If average value of microcirculation in the wall of pulmonary artery in position of aortic valve has been decreased by the value either equal or below 1.282xsigma, one should predict favorable result of operation, if the decrease occurred by more than 1.282xsigma, one should predict unfavorable result of operation. The method broadens the number of diagnostic means applied in the field of cardiosurgery. ^ EFFECT: higher efficiency and accuracy of prediction. ^ 2 ex
