Actinomycosis

Syndrome of intoxication

The intoxication syndrome is a severe general condition of the body caused by infectious toxicosis, with a decrease in the resistance of the organism. As can be seen from the definition of the concept, two conditions are necessary for the development of the intoxication syndrome: a severe purulent infection and a decrease in the resistance of the organism.
