ABSTRACT

A meta-analysis research was implemented to appraise the effect of antibiotic bone cement (ABC) in treating infected diabetic foot wounds (IDFWs). Inclusive literature research till April 2023 was done and 1237 interconnected researches were revised. The 15 selected researches enclosed 895 IDFWs persons were in the utilized researchers' starting point, 449 of them were utilizing ABC, and 446 were in the control group. Odds ratio and 95% confidence intervals were utilized to appraise the consequence of ABC in treating IDFWs by the contentious approach and a fixed or random model. ABC had significantly lower wound healing time (MD, -9.83; 95% CI, -12.45--7.20, p < 0.001), and time to bacterial conversion of the wound (MD, -7.30; 95% CI, -10.38--4.32, p < 0.001) compared to control in IDFWs persons. However, caution needs to be taken when interacting with its values since there was a low sample size of most of the chosen research found for the comparisons in the meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Patients with extremely severe burns often require rapid wound closure with a tangential excision or escharectomy combined with a skin graft to reduce life-threatening complications such as infection. Traditional tangential excision surgery using the Watson or Humby knife does not allow accurate excision of necrotic tissue and often removes too much active tissue, which is detrimental to the rapid healing of the wound. Importantly, the Versajet hydrosurgical system, with its smaller handle, allows for more precise excision of necrotic burn tissue and preserves more active dermal tissue, positively affecting wound healing and scarring. This study compared the safety and efficacy of hydrosurgical combined with autologous skin grafting to conventional excision combined with autologous skin grafting in patients with extremely severe burn. METHODS: Information of sixty burn patients with total body surface area (TBSA) > 50 % treated at the first affiliated hospital of Anhui Medical University from January 2019 to August 2022 were analyzed. The patients were divided into a conventional debridement group (n = 37) and a hydrosurgical debridement group (n = 23) according to the approach used. The hydrosurgical debridement group and the conventional debridement group were compared from the difference between the duration of the first debridement surgery, wound healing time, the changes of red blood cells and hemoglobin concentration postoperative, total blood transfusion, hospitalization cost, skin grafting frequency, procalcitonin, wound bacterial culture, albumin and prealbumin. RESULTS: Information on age, gender, weight, inhalation injury, hypovolemic shock, preoperative procalcitonin, preoperative albumin, preoperative prealbumin, the operation frequency (n ≥ 3), preoperative trauma culture and postoperative trauma culture were compared between both groups (P > 0.05). Operative time and wound healing time were significantly shorter in patients with hydrosurgical debridement combined with autologous skin grafting than those in the control group (P < 0.05), while hospitalization costs were not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05). The changes of red blood cells and hemoglobin concentration during the postoperative period in the hydrosurgical debridement group were less significantly than those in the conventional debridement group (P < 0.05). The total amount of red blood cells transfused during hospitalization was significantly lower in the hydrosurgical debridement group than that in the conventional debridement group (P < 0.05), but the total amount of fresh frozen plasma transfused during hospitalization was not statistically significant between the two groups (P > 0.05). Albumin on the third day after surgery and prealbumin on the first, third and fifth day after surgery improved more significantly than those in the control group(P < 0.05), however, there were no significant differences between the two groups in albumin on the first and fifth postoperative days (P > 0.05). The PCT level in the conventional debridement group was significantly higher than that in the hydrosurgical debridement group on the first, third and fifth days after surgery(P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The hydrosurgical debridement group presented with shorter operative time, less blood loss during surgery, faster postoperative nutritional recovery, less postoperative inflammatory response and faster wounds healing, and did not increase the hospitalization cost, postoperative bacterial culture of the wounds and the number of skin grafting surgeries. In patients with extremely severe burn, hydrosurgical debridement combined with autologous skin grafting group is safer and more effective than those in the conventional debridement combined with autologous skin grafting group.

ABSTRACT

Among the assortment of available dressings aimed at promoting wound healing, moist dressings have gained significant popularity because of their ability to create an optimal environment for wound recovery. This meta-analysis seeks to compare the effects of moist dressing versus gauze dressing on wound healing time. A comprehensive literature search was conducted, encompassing publications up until April 1, 2023, across multiple databases including PubMed, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Cochrane Library. Stringent criteria were used to determine study inclusion and evaluate methodological quality. Statistical analyses were performed utilizing Stata 17.0. A total of 13 articles, encompassing 866 participants, were included in the analysis. The findings indicate that moist dressing surpasses gauze dressing in terms of wound healing time (standard mean difference [SMD] -2.50, 95% confidence interval [CI] -3.35 to -1.66, p < 0.01; I2 = 97.24%), wound site infection rate (odds ratio [OR] 0.30, 95% CI 0.17 to 0.54, p < 0.01; I2 = 39.91%), dressing change times (SMD -3.65, 95% CI -5.34 to -1.97, p < 0.01; I2 = 96.48%), and cost (SMD -2.66, 95% CI -4.24 to -1.09, p < 0.01; I2 = 94.90%). Subgroup analyses revealed possible variations in wound healing time based on wound types and regions. This study underscores the significant advantages associated with the use of moist dressings, including expedited wound healing, reduced infection rates, decreased frequency of dressing changes, and lower overall treatment costs.

ABSTRACT

A meta-analysis study to assess the effect of honey dressing (HD) in the management of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). A comprehensive literature examination till January 2023 was implemented and 1794 linked studies were appraised. The picked studies contained 882 subjects with DFUs were in the picked studies' baseline, 424 of them were using HD, and 458 were using a control. Odds ratio (OR) in addition to 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to calculate the consequence of HD in the management of DFUs after DFU by the dichotomous and continuous styles and a fixed or random model. The HD applied to DFUs caused a significantly higher wound healing rate (OR, 2.06; 95% CI, 1.45-2.93, P < .001) and lower wound healing time (MD, -10.42; 95% CI, -16.27- -4.58, P < .001) compared with the control. The HD applied to DFUs caused a significantly higher wound healing rate and lower wound healing time compared with the control. Although precautions should be taken when commerce with the consequences since most of the picked studies for this meta-analysis was with low sample sizes.

ABSTRACT

Chronic wounds have become one of the major issues in medicine today, the treatments for which include dressing changes, negative pressure wound therapy, hyperbaric oxygen, light irradiation, surgery and so forth. Nevertheless, the application of diode lasers in chronic wounds has rarely been reported. This retrospective cohort study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of diode laser (810 nm) irradiation on chronic wounds. Eighty-nine patients were enrolled in the study. The control group (41 patients) received traditional dressing change therapy, while the diode laser treatment group (48 patients) were patients received additional treatment with diode laser (810 nm) irradiation for 10 min at each dressing change. Wound healing time was compared between two groups, while the pain relief index was creatively introduced to evaluate the effect of relieving wound pain, which was calculated by the difference in pain scores between the first and last dressing changes divided by the number of treatment days. The wound healing time of the diode laser treatment group was 22.71 ± 8.99 days, which was significantly shorter than that of the control group (37.44 ± 23.42 days). The pain relief index of the diode laser treatment group was 0.081 ± 0.055, which was significantly increased compared with that of the control group (0.057 ± 0.033). Our findings suggest that diode laser irradiation has the potential to promote healing in chronic wounds and relieve wound pain.

ABSTRACT

Objectives: To study the application effect of negative pressure sealing drainage technology combined with silver ion sterilization nursing solution in the nursing of necrotizing fasciitis. Methods: Medical records of patients with necrotizing fasciitis, treated in our hospital from June 2019 to June 2021, were selected. Patients were retrospectively assigned into two groups based on the debridement method used: debridement with silver ion sterilization nursing solution Group-I, or debridement with negative pressure sealing drainage technology combined with silver ion sterilization nursing solution. Group-II. Wound healing, dressing change times, healing time, treatment cost and patient satisfaction in both groups were statistically compared. Results: The wound healing rate of patients in Group-II group was higher than that of Group-I on the 5th, 10th and 15th day after operation (P < 0.05). Dressing change times, healing time and treatment cost of patients in the Group-II were lower than those of Group-I (P < 0.05). Patient satisfaction in the Group-II was 91.4% (54 / 59), which was higher than that of Group-I (75.4% (40 / 53) (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Negative pressure sealing drainage technology combined with silver ion sterilization nursing solution in the nursing of necrotizing fasciitis is effective. It can promote wound healing, shorten the healing time, reduce the times of wound dressing change and treatment cost. It also improves the overall patient satisfaction, making it an efficient method in clinical application.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical effect of extracorporeal circulation compression perfusion (ECCP) in the treatment of diabetic foot. METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated 89 patients with diabetic foot admitted from January 2017 to April 2019. The patients were grouped according to whether they received ECCP treatment; experimental group: 27 patients, controls: 62 patients. After applying the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria, there were 21 patients in the experimental group and 21 patients in the control group. Foot microcirculation was evaluated by measuring the percutaneous oxygen partial pressure (TcPO2) and infrared thermography (IRT). Wound healing time and ulcer recurrence rate 1 year after discharge were compared between the groups. RESULTS: TcPO2 and IRT values in the experimental group differed significantly compared with the control group. Foot ulcer healing time in the experimental group was shorter than that in the control group (17.10 ± 3.08 days vs 25.38 ± 4.40 days, respectively), and the recurrence rate after 1 year in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group (2/21, 9.5% vs 9/21, 42.8%, respectively). CONCLUSION: ECCP improved foot microcirculatory perfusion in diabetic foot treatment. ECCP has clinical practicality and may accelerate wound healing speed and reduce ulcer recurrence.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Management of chronic wounds remains one of the major challenges for health professionals and patients. An evidence-based decision is important to ensure that patients are receiving the best treatment proven to reduce healing time and improve outcomes, including economic benefits and patients' health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Due to recent restrictions because of the COVID-19 pandemic, including closure of wound care centres within hospitals and a drop in patient volume, chronic wound management needs simple-to-use dressings which are still effective and evidence-based solutions. This systematic review was conducted to identify the clinical evidence available on a sucrose octasulfate dressing (TLC-NOSF, UrgoStart dressing range, Laboratoires Urgo, France) to explore its efficacy in the management of chronic wounds, particularly lower limb ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers and pressure ulcers. METHOD: A literature search of PubMed, Cochrane Library and Google Scholar was conducted based on the PICO model (patient/population, intervention, comparison and outcomes) to retrieve publications of different levels of evidence in order to evaluate outcomes of the use of TLC-NOSF dressings. RESULTS: A total of 21 publications of different levels, ranging from double-blind randomised control trials to case reports, involving over 12,000 patients, were identified through PubMed, with a further eight publications through Google Scholar and two publications through Cochrane Library. A total of seven results were omitted due to the lack of relevance or repetition. CONCLUSION: All the evidence provided suggest that these dressings provide clinicians with an evidence-based option for the management of chronic wounds; that the TLC-NOSF dressings are beneficial in promoting the healing process, reducing healing times, enhancing patients' HRQoL, and in allowing a more cost-effective procedure.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: At present, platelet-rich plasma has been used in bums, plastic surgery, surgery and orthopedics. However, due to the different standards for platelet-rich plasma preparation, the results of research on bums are controversial. OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma in the repair of burn wounds. METHODS: A computer-based online search of CNKI, VIP, WanFang, CBMdisc, PubMed, Embase, CochraneLibrary, Web of Science databases to retrieve randomized controlled trials regarding platelet-rich plasma repair of bum wounds. In the treatment group, platelet-rich plasma therapy or platelet-rich plasma therapy combined with conventional or other therapies were used. In the control group, conventional therapy, other therapies, or placebo treatment were used. After literature screening, information extraction and quality evaluation, Review Manager 5.3 software was used for meta analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Eleven articles were included, involving 837 patients consisting of 420 patients in the treatment group and 417 patients in the control group. Meta analysis results revealed that the wound healing rate in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group [OR=12.61, 95%Cl (6.93,18.29), P<0.000 1], Wound healing time in the treatment group was significantly shorter than that in the control group [OR=-4.64, 95%Cl (-6.21, -3.06), P<0.000 01]. The number of layers of gauze soaked by dressing [OR=-4.01, 95%Cl (-4.91, -3.11), P<0.000 01], the times of changing inner gauze [OR=-3.79, 95%Cl (-5.33, -2.26), P<0.000 01, and the times of dressing change on wound surface [OR=-3.41, 95%Cl (-5.93, -0.88), P=0.008] in the treatment group were significantly less than those in the control group. The positive rate of bacterial culture in wound [OR=0.46, 95%Cl (0.22, 0.94), P=0.03] and the incidence of inflammatory reaction in wound [OR=0.30, 95%Cl (0.17, 0.56), P=0.000 1] in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group. The results suggested that platelet-rich plasma can increase the wound healing rate, shorten wound healing time, reduce the number of layers of gauze soaked by dressing, the times of changing inner gauze, and the times of dressing change on wound surface, and lower the positive rate of bacterial culture and the incidence of inflammatory reaction in wound.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To compare the wound healing time, Surgical site infection (SSI) rate and other postoperative outcomes between the gunsight closure and purse-string closure technique in loop stoma closure. Methods: Between November 2013 and December 2017, a total of 143 patients who underwent gunsight stoma reversal were included in this multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial. The patients were randomized to undergo gunsight (gunsight group, n=72) or purse-string closure technique (purse-string group, n=71). The primary endpoint was wound healing time. The second endpoints were the incidence of SSI, morbidity, and patient satisfaction. Statistical analysis between groups was performed using the t-test, repeated measures analysis of variance, Mann-Whitney U test, χ(2) test or Fisher's exact test. Results: There were 45 males and 27 females with age of 67 (11) (M(Q(R))) years in gunsight group, 42 males and 29 females with age of 65 (20) years in purse-string group. The body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologist classification, comorbidities, primary diagnosis, the type of ostomy, intraoperative blood loss, perioperative complications, postoperative hospital stay, hospitalization cost, SSI rate and incisional hernia (stoma site) between the 2 groups were not significantly different (P>0.05). Although had a statistically longer operating time (80(10) minutes vs. 70(10) minutes, Z=-2.381, P=0.017), patients who underwent gunsight procedure and a significantly shorter wound healing time (17(2) days vs. 25(4) days, Z=-10.199, P<0.01), higher patient satisfaction score with regards to wound healing time (3(1) vs. 3(1), Z=-4.526, P<0.01), and higher total patient satisfaction score (25(3) vs. 25(3), Z=-2.529, P=0.011) compared with those who underwent purse-string procedure. Conclusions: The gunsight and purse-string techniques are effective procedures for stoma reversal and both have low SSI rate. The gunsight technique is associated with shorter wound healing time, higher levels of patient satisfaction compared with purse-string technique, and is recommended as the closure technique of choice.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Patients with burns present with different clinical features depending on the types of burn injury and burn patients with lower levels of vitamin D have worse prognoses and more complications. The study aims to investigate the association between vitamin D levels and burn factors according to each burn type in relation to early intensive rehabilitation therapy initiated for inpatients with burns. METHODS: In this retrospective study, we enrolled 757 of 1716 inpatients who underwent rehabilitative therapy between May 2013 and April 2017. Burn types were divided into flame burn, electrical burn and other burns, including scalding, contact and chemical burns. Age, burned body surface area (BSA), wound healing time (WHT), length of hospital stay (LOS) and body mass index were analysed between vitamin D deficient and non-deficient patient groups using Student's t-tests, or Mann-Whitney U test and among three burn types using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) or Kruskal-Wallis one-way ANOVA. The relationship between vitamin D levels and burn factors was evaluated using Pearson's or Spearman's correlation coefficient tests, and multiple linear regression analysis in different burn groups. RESULTS: In total, 88.9% patients were vitamin D deficient, and these patients had a larger burned BSA (p = 0.015) and longer WHT and LOS (all p < 0.001) than non-deficient patients. Burned BSA, WHT and vitamin D levels showed significant differences in their mean values according to three burn types (all p < 0.001). WHT was a communal factor significantly associated with vitamin D levels in all three burn types (p < 0.05). The WHT cut-off points to predict vitamin D deficiency were 55 days for flame burn (p < 0.001) and 62.5 days for electrical burn (p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: WHT across all three burn types was a common factor associated with vitamin D levels for inpatients with burns who had undergone rehabilitative therapy. Electrical burn patients with vitamin D deficiency, even those with a low burned BSA percentage, showed prolonged wound healing over a two-month post-burn period. Independent of burned BSA, nutritional intervention concerning vitamin D in relation to burn wound healing should be considered to guide early initiation of intensive rehabilitation therapy.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To evaluate differences in the surgical outcomes of endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) according to four different surgical methods. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This retrospective study included 222 patients who underwent endoscopic DCR from 2011 to 2013. All patients were assigned to one of four groups according to instruments for incision of nasal mucosa and the formation of mucosal flap: group 1, a sickle knife with mucosal flap; group 2, a sickle knife without mucosal flap; group 3, electrocautery with mucosal flap; and group 4, electrocautery without mucosal flap. The follow up period was at least 6 months. RESULTS: There were 33 eyes in group 1, 44 eyes in group 2, 49 eyes in group 3, and 97 eyes in group 4. There were no significant differences in success rate between groups (P = 0.878). Wound healing time was significantly different between groups (P < 0.001). In post hoc analysis, wound healing time was significantly shorter in group 1 and group 2 than in group 3 and group 4. The vertical ostium size and postsurgical complication were not significantly different between groups. CONCLUSIONS: The use of cold instruments such as sickle knife may be more helpful and effective for shortening wound healing time rather than making mucosal flaps in endoscopic DCR.

ABSTRACT

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: We investigated the significance of microangiopathy in the development of foot ulcer, which is still disputed. METHODS: We assessed microangiopathy by histological analysis of the capillary ultrastructure using transmission electron microscopy and capillary density and arteriolar morphology in paraffin-embedded sections from the skin of type 2 diabetic patients: 30 neuroischaemic patients (Isc) revascularised with peripheral angioplasty and 30 neuropathic patients (Neu) with foot ulcer, compared with ten non-diabetic volunteers. RESULTS: In the diabetic patients, capillaries in the dermal papillary layer were fewer (-22.2%, 159 ± 43 vs 205 ± 52 mm(2) in non-diabetic volunteers, p < 0.01). They also showed detrimental remodelling, with a 2.2-fold increase in capillary basement membrane thickness (3.44 ± 1.19 vs 1.53 ± 0.34 µm in non-diabetic volunteers, p < 0.001) and a 57.7% decrease in lumen area (14.6 ± 11.1 vs 34.7 ± 27.5 µm(2), p < 0.001). No differences were observed between the diabetic Isc or Neu patients. Isc were more prone to develop arteriolar occlusion than Neu (16.8 ± 6.9% vs 6.7 ± 3.7%, respectively, p < 0.001). No patient had been amputated at 30 days and healing time was significantly longer in Isc (180 ± 120 vs 64 ± 50 days in Neu, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: Capillary microangiopathy is present in equal measure in neuroischaemic and neuropathic diabetic foot skin. The predominance of arteriolar occlusions with neuroischaemia indicated the existence of an additional 'small vessel disease' that did not affect an effective revascularisation and did not worsen the prognosis of major amputations but slowed the healing process of the neuroischaemic foot ulcer. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02610036.

ABSTRACT

Background: Wound healing mechanisms still unclear. Wounds are physical injuries that result in an opening or breaking of the skin. Proper healing of wounds is essential for the restoration of disrupted anatomical continuity and disturbed functional status of the skin. This is a product of the integrated response of several cell types to injury. Wound healing is a complex process that results in the contraction and closure of the wound and restoration of a functional barrier.Goal: The purpose of this study was to determine burn wound healing activity of Calvacin. Materials and Methods:We used in study as colored reaction thin layer chromatography (TLC) and UV-spectrophotometer methods to determine active compounds in the three component drug "Calvacin".In research were inducted 20 healthy white mice and 40 rats. Investigation was based and implemented at scientific research laboratory of Traditional Medical Science Technology and Production Corporation and Institute of Veterinary medicine of pathological laboratory. The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Ministry of Health.Results:Results of the phytochemical investigations showed that contained in the new drug "Calvacin" determined the presence of bioactive substances such as flavonoids, saponin, tannin, curcuminoids, organic acids and minerals. Substance was absorbed 25.7% in 40 grade ethanol, 27.1% in 70 grade, 22.2% in 96 grade and 19.6% in sterile water. We was established quality quantities of Calvacin in the drug amount summary flavonoids 1% and determined by UV spectrophotometer method. Proceeding from the absorption maximum of the substances analyzed the wave length of detection was determined as 370nm. In the result of mineral study of the "Calvacin", Ca
