Abstract:
ObjectiveTo evaluate the therapeutic effect of Salvia miltiorrhiza and ligustrazine as an adjuvant therapy in the patients with electric arcburns.MethodsFifty patients with electric arc burns were divided into 2 groups according to the random number table, with 25 in each group. The patients in the treatment group received intravenous infusion of 10 ml Salvia miltiorrhiza and ligustrazineinjection for 7 days in addition to the conventional therapies, and those in the control group only treated with conventional therapies.ResultsThe rates of wound healing in the treatment group were significantly improved at 7 days(25.7% ± 3.1%vs.21.3%± 3.0%;t=5.122,P=0.000) and 14 days(60.3% ± 8.6%vs.53.8% ± 10.8%;t=2.434,P=0.022) than the control group. While at 21 days, there was no significant difference between the two groups (99.4% ± 1.7%vs.98.7% ± 2.7%;t=1.163,P=0.265). The time to wound healing in the treatment group was significantly shorter than that in the control group (18.9 ± 2.5 dvs.20.3 ± 2.2 d;t=-1.216,P=0.020).ConclusionsSalvia miltiorrhiza and ligustrazine injections as an adjuvant therapy has a beneficial therapeuticeffect in patients with electric arc burns.
