Peritoneal lavage in peritonitis: a preliminary evaluation.

Despite advances in therapy based on increasing understanding of the attendant haemodynamic and metabolic derangements, together with the use of antibiotics, diffuse peritonitis remains a life-endangering condition.

Histological features of peritoneal lavage with ropivacaine in rats with fecal peritonitis.

PURPOSE To evaluate the histological features in lungs, peritoneum and liver of rats subjected to fecal peritonitis and treated with peritoneal lavage with 0.2% ropivacaine. METHODS Twenty Wistar rats were subjected to laparotomy 6 h after the fecal peritonitis induction with autogenous stool. Rats were randomly distributed into 4 groups: I - (n=5) Control, no treatment; II - (n=5) Drying of ...
