Based on the study of 138 surgical patients the author found that this reaction, being an indicator of the degree of intoxication of the organism by the products of inflammatory decay, can play an important role in the diagnosis of inflammatory diseases. In the smooth course of the postoperative period the sedimentation reaction is accelerated, especially after laparotomies, which depends on the intensified absorption of wound secretions by peritoneum.
