On the Steffen reaction in the diagnosis of subclinical rheumatic heart disease
In recent years, the issue of diagnosing the latent and sluggish forms of rheumatic heart disease has become particularly urgent, since the number of classical forms of rheumatism has decreased considerably and the clinic has become dominated by its erased and asymptomatic manifestations. The most frequent diagnostic difficulties arise from heart defects with circulatory insufficiency, when acidosis distorts many indicators of rheumatic activity. Meanwhile, the determination of the activity of the rheumatic process in these patients is extremely important in the choice of treatment methods.
