摘要:The presence of necrotic tissue is one of the major problems that affect healing of burn wounds. The present study was designed to find the effectiveness of collagenase versus moist exposed burn ointment (MEBO) on removal of necrotic tissue of burns. Twenty mice randomly assigned and divided into four groups. For Group 1, burn wounds were treated with collagenase ointment only, Group 2 burn wounds were treated with MEBO, Group 3 burn wounds were treated with white vaseline alone, and Group 4 burn wounds were considered as control and left without treatment. In each group, the time of treatment was considered. The results indicated that the removal time of necrotic tissue and healing process was better in the case of using collagenase than using MEBO for treatment of burns.

Cutaneous Chemical Burns Associated With Chlorhexidine-Alcohol Solution in an Extremely Preterm Infant
摘要:Safe cutaneous antisepsis in neonatal intensive care unit is imperative. Chlorhexidine-based solution is commonly used for skin preparation prior to the placement of intravascular devices. However, in premature infants, its usage has not been standardized. We present a case of chemical burns secondary to the use of chlorhexidine-alcohol skin preparation solution in an extremely low birth weight infant.
