RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of different concentrations of propranolol gel in treatment of infantile hemangiomas(IH).Methods Sixty-three consecutive infants with hemangiomas from Mar.2011to Sep.2012 in Department of General Surgery,Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Military Command,were divided randomly into A,B,C groups and respectively treated with propranolol hydrochloride 1％ (20 g ∶ 200 mg,A group),2％ (20 g:400 mg,B group),3％ (20 g:600 mg,C group),evenly applied to the surface of the hemangiomas,3 times a day.Follow-up treatment was performed for 6 months.Details of adverse reactions,gender,age,tumor location,complications,and hemangioma size,texture,color and recurrence after stopping were recorded,and hospital review and efficacy evaluation were performed every month.Results After 6 months of treatment,A group had effective treatment in 11 patients(52.38％),ineffective treatment in 10 patients (47.62％),B group had effective treatment in 12 patients (57.14％),ineffective treatment in 9 patients (42.86％),and C group had effective treatment in 19 patients (90.48％),ineffective treatment in 2 patients(9.52％).After taking color Doppler ultrasound examination revealed IH thickness revealed significantly thinner.Conclusions External use of propranolol hydrochloride gel is an effective option for superficial hemangiomas,And 3％ concentration of propranolol gel is superior to the efficacy of the other 2 drugs.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the efficacy of adhesive negative pressure suction apparatus in treatment of wound infection after colorectal surgery.Methods From January 2010 to November 2011,consecutive patients with wound infection after colorectal surgery were randomized to the experimental group (n =24 ) and the control group (n =24).The patients in experimental group were treated with the adhesive negative pressure suction apparatus.The patients in the control group were treated with traditional wound therapy.The results of treatment were evaluated.Results Time from debriding the wound infection to secondary suture was significantly shorter in patients of the experimental group ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The total number of dressing changes was very significantly less in patients of the experimental group ( P ＜ 0.01 ).The total cost of dressing in experimental group was significantly less than the control group (P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions The application of adhesive negative pressure suction apparatus in treatment of the wound infection after colorectal surgery can shorten the wound processing time,reduce the number of dressing changes and the total cost of dressing,thus has a high clinical value.
