[Acute hepatic coma. Experimental study on the predictive value of clinical-chemical findings for the prognosis of acute hepatic coma].

In order to determine the validity of clinical-chemical parameters for the prognosis of hepatic failure, 28 pigs were subjected to liver ischemia for 40--160 minutes duration. The following parameters were studied: GOT, GPT, gamma-GT, LAP, LDH, GlDH, AP and isoenzymes, total bilirubin, potassium, sodium and chloride. In a statistical comparison in the surviving animals, an unexplainable increase in GlDH activity was observed. In the other clinical-chemical parameters none was seen to be of use for the prognosis for either life or death in acute hepatic failure.
