摘要:Background: This is still a public problem that needs to be solved urgently: chronic and refractory wound healing with long course and complex pathological mechanism. At present, there is still a lack of effective clinical treatment. This study, therefore, aims at exploring moist exposed burn therapy/moist exposed burn ointment (MEBT/MEBO) combined with Zhuang medicine detoxification in the treatment of chronic refractory wound healing. Methodology: 100 SPF Wistar rats were randomly divided into blank control group, model control group, MEBO group, Zhuang medicine group and Combined group, with 20 rats in each group. Open wound model was established in blank control group, and chronic refractory wound model was established in other groups. Black control group and model control group were given food and water freely, MEBO group was given dressing change once a day, Zhuang medicine group was given intragastric administration once a day, and combined group was given dressing change and intragastric administration once a day. The effective rate of wound healing was observed after 12 days of continuous intervention. Conclusion: Skin regeneration medical technique combined with Zhuang medicine poison theory can effectively reduce the symptoms of bleeding and exudation, reduce the area of wound, shorten the healing time of wound, and achieve physiological healing of wound. It has a good effect on chronic refractory wound.
摘要:Exposing the dorsal superficial skin of rats to partial-depth burn leads to bacterial and microbes Invasion. Topical treatment is required in most superficial burn cases Moist exposed burn ointment (MEBO) protects wounds from infection and enhances healing without any harmful effects of purified chemicals is caused. The topical using of HA gel in rat models with full and partial thickness surgical wounds shows enhancement in wound repair. In this study, we compared the healing efficacy of topical use of hyaluronic acid gel products with MEBO as standard management in rats that were exposed to a partial-thickness burn. The experiment included twenty-four (24) adult albino rats of male sex with weight (150-220 gm) of 3 months’ age divided into four groups. Partial-thickness burn wounds are applied on their shaved dorsal skin by a hot metal plate for 4 seconds. Group I: control group received topically normal saline as a vehicle placebo, group II: are treated topically with MEBO, Groups III & IV: are treated topically with hyaluronic acid gel (Afta Med and Gum Afta Clear) respectively twice daily for 14 days. The burn wound area was daily examined and measuring the diameter of the lesion area was until day 14 and photographs of the lesion area and wound repairs were taken at different time intervals (0,3,5,7, 10, and 14). % of wound contraction also detected. The rats were sacrificed on days 11 and 14, then elevates 5 mm of diameter full-thickness flap of healed and unhealed wound areas. Wound healing occurs faster when using HA gel products topically for treatment of the induced partialthickness burn when compared with using MEBO and control group which was supported with histological examination and statistical analysis.
摘要:Background: Despite the availability of many topical formulations for scar treatment, an objective evaluation of their effectiveness is lacking. Objective: To assess the physiological, structural, and mechanical parameters of scar healing by a scar ointment (MEBO-Scar). Methods: 45 patients from the Department of Obstetrics at Al Ain Hospital, UAE, with recently acquired Pfannenstiel scars were recruited into this prospective, open-label, controlled study. Scar ointment was applied to a lateral third of the scar; positive control (silicone gel based topical) to the other lateral third; the middle third was left untreated (negative control). The scars were evaluated at 4 time points up to 12 weeks using non-invasive devices and a scar questionnaire. Results: In comparison with silicone gel, there was a significant reduction in trans epithelial water loss at weeks 2, 4, 8, and 12 (p<0.001) and scar area at weeks 4, 8 and 12 (p<0.001) with scar ointment. The skin elasticity at week 4 was significantly increased by scar ointment (p=0.007). By week 12, gross colour mismatch of the scar was described by 9% patients with scar ointment (24% with silicone gel, 42% with no treatment; p<0.001). There was a significant improvement in scar texture with scar ointment by week 12 (p<0.001). Conclusion: Scar ointment has beneficial effects on objective and subjective patient-reported parameters of Pfannenstiel scars.
