Hundreds of doctors were carried away by the idea of blood transfusion, looking at it as a panacea for many incurable diseases, accompanied by the depletion of the spiritual and physical forces of the body. Following the obstetric practice, military surgery seemed to be the most promising area for blood transfusion. The transience of military campaigns, coupled with mass wound casualties, became one of the main organizational and ethical problems of the military field medicine in 1850-1870. Generally, blood transfusion gave doctors the hope of bringing back to life the thousands of wounded people who were dying of blood loss on the battlefields. The use of lambs solved the problem of a shortage of healthy donated blood, allowing this idea to be put into practice. Numerous publications in the professional and public press of that time supported the interest of practicing physicians in this method. As a result, in 1874 they performed the largest number of blood transfusions, accounting for 40% of the global clinical practice that existed at that time.history of medicineblood transfusionmilitary medicineистория медициныпереливание кровивоенная медицина1.Бильрот Т.
