There were 19 men (54.29%) and 16 women (45.71%), aged from 23 to 77 years old, median – 39 years.</p><p>22 injured persons (62.86%) had road traffic injuries, 10 (28.57%) had household injuries, 2 (5.71%) had production injuries and 1 more (2.86%) had others. ISS scale less than 17 points was found in 20 patients (57.14%), from 17 to 25 – in 12 (34.29%), from 26 to 40 – in 2 (5.71%), more than 40 – in 1 (2.86%).</p><p>In all patients (100%) varying degrees of pelvic bone injuries were verified. These lesions of the pelvic ring were more often combined with fractures of the proximal femur with a traumatic brain injury - 17 cases (48.57%), with concomitant fractures of extremities of other localization - 12 (34.29%), with intraperitoneal injury - 11 (31.43%), with vertebral fractures - 9 (25.71%), with chest trauma - 6 (17.14%).</p><p><strong>Results.</strong> In the main group of patients with treatment by platelet-rich plasma radiological visible adhesions of the key injured area in 8 weeks occurred in 10 people (83.33%). In 1 patient (8.3%) fusion occurred after 12 weeks and in 1 (8.3%) – 16 weeks after surgery. In the control group fusion at 8 weeks was detected in 14 patients (60.87%), in 8 patients (34.78%) – at 16 weeks.</p><p><strong>Conclusion.</strong> Reliably substantiated data were obtained according to the results of the analysis of contingency tables 4*4 and the calculation of χ2 for the efficiency coefficient according to the Wald formula (Chi-square 6.87 with p=0.009), which indicate the best clinical positiveness of the technique with the additional introduction of platelet-rich plasma into the treatment regimen as part of assessing the dynamics of fracture consolidation processes in victims with multiple and concomitant injuries, which allows us to predict a favorable outcome in these patients.</p> ER -
