Abstract:
Objective:To compare the application of continuous negative pressure wound therapy and conventional packing and pressure bandage in medium thick skin transplantation of difficult to fix wounds.Methods:96 patients who underwent medium thick skin transplantation of difficult to fix wounds in Suizhou Hospital Affiliated to Hubei Medical College from March 2019 to March 2020 were divided into two groups according to whether the patients were treated with continuous negative pressure wound therapy. 48 patients in the control group were treated with conventional packaging and pressure bandage, and 48 patients in the observation group were treated with continuous negative pressure wound therapy. The levels of white blood cell (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), skin graft survival area, skin graft survival ratio, skin hematoma ratio, length of hospital stay and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results:The levels of WBC and CRP in the two groups at 7 and 14 days after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment ( P<0.05); The levels of WBC and CRP in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group at 7 and 14 days after treatment ( P<0.05); The survival area and survival ratio of skin graft in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05); The area and ratio of skin hematoma in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05); The hospital stay in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group ( t=10.472, P=0.001); The incidence of skin graft complications in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (2.08% vs 12.50%) (χ 2=10.174, P=0.015). Conclusions:Continuous negative pressure wound in medium thickness skin transplantation of difficult to fix wound has obvious advantages in improving the survival area of skin graft, reducing skin graft complications and shortening hospital stay, which is worthy of clinical recommendation.
