Occlusive injury syndrome is a complex of pathological changes in tissues and organs that arise as a result of circulatory disorders in a certain area. It can develop as an independent disease or as a complication after exposure to various external factors (trauma, infections, toxins). In some cases, damaging lesion syndrome can lead to various consequences: from seemingly minor disorders to death.
The syndrome includes damage to blood vessels, nerves, muscles, ligaments and skin. The specific combination of symptoms depends on the location of the injury. All of them are signs of a sudden stop in blood flow in a certain area. Due to oxygen starvation, vascular spasm and tissue compression occur, and blood microcirculation is disrupted. These processes can lead to pain, swelling, hemorrhage and other pathological changes. That is why it is so important to provide timely assistance to the patient.
Causes of the syndrome
The most common causes of damage to the occlusion are:
the impact of compression on the human body (for example, during an accident);
