URGES SOVIET DOCTORS'TO USE STAPHYLOCOCCUS ANTIPHAGIN
Dr A. Anton'yev
Moscow
Medical organizations of a number of oblasts (Kemerovo, Omsk, Tomsk,
Vologda, etc.) do not efficiently pursue the fight against pyogI,-.iic diseases
at industrial establishments. Staphylococcus antiphagin, which in combina-
tion with local therapy produces a lasting therapeutic effect, is being
Introduced into practice at a very Blow rate. This is a state of affairs
which cannot be tolerated.
Therapy of furuncles, furunculosis, and hydroadenites with staphylornc-
cuB antiphagin has proved very effective. At a recent conference in Moscow,
Professor Bragin, Ivanovo, cited interesting data on the administration of
staphylococcus antiphagin together with autogenous blood, and Dr Antoz'ye,
Leningrad Institute of Physiotherapy, reported on a method of applying the
antiphagin with the aid of a electrophoretic procedure.
Introduction of staphylococcus antiphagin into general medical prac-
tice proceeds in an entirely unsatisfactory manner in Chelyabinsk, the
Voronezh, Orel, Tomsk, and Ryazan' oblasts, the Udmurt ASSR, and the Yakut
ASSR. The FSFSR Dermato-Venerological Institute, oblast dermato-venerolog-
ical institutes, and chairs of skin diseases and venerological diseases at
medical institutes do not pay sufficient attention to scientific problems
connected with this matter.
To carry on an effective fight against pyogenic skin diseases in in-
dustry and agriculture, cooperation between dermatologists, surgeons, and
physicians of village hospitals is necessary. Better results will be
achieved if physicians work in close contact with factory committees, mine
committees, and industrial safety specialists.
It is essential that dermato-venerological institutes, chairs of skin
diseases, and oblast dispensaries include in their scientific programs the
treatment of problems dealing with the therapy and prophylaxis of pyogenic
skin diseases.
