New evidence on the issue of vital blood lavage

Abstract

The question of the possibility of life-long blood washing, for the first time put forward by Professor I.P. Mikhailovsky in 1914, was actually proved by him in 1924-25 by experiments on dogs poisoned by supralethal doses of morphine injected directly into the blood. At the same time it was found that washing the blood of these animals while alive saved them, while the control dogs, i.e. left to themselves after poisoning with morphine, all died of acute intoxication. These experiments raised a number of very important questions, the experimental elucidation of which was the urgent task of the proposed method, and without a satisfactory solution of which the use of the latter for the purposes of practical medicine was not possible.
