Multisystem organ failure

ראשי > הגדרות > כשל רב-מערכתי (קריסת מערכות) כשל רב-מערכתי (קריסת מערכות) ( multi-system failure )
הפסקת התפקוד של ארבע המערכות החיוניות בגוף: הלב, הריאות, הכליות והמוח. לכשל יכולות להיות סיבות שונות, ביניהן פגיעה בלב, או זיהום על-ידי חיידק אלים. הטיפול הרפואי מותאם לגורם הכשל, ובמהלכו החולה מורדם באופן מלאכותי כדי לאפשר לו להיות מחובר למכונת הנשמה ללא כאבים. שאר מערכות הגוף נתמכות על-ידי מכשירים שונים ותרופות מתאימות, על פי הצורך.
