The author was able to establish that there is a known pattern in the number of blood plates in puerperal sepsis that allows prediction. In general, an increase in the number of plaques is a good prognostic sign, while a decrease in the number of plaques indicates a poor outcome of the disease. In both cases, the number of laminae may fluctuate widely, but in cases with a favorable course it never falls below normal.
