Objective To investigate the clinical effect of combination of ozone ,ozonated water and improved Vacuum Sealing Drainage(VSD) in healing complex wound ,and to observe the expression of fibroblast growth factors(FGF) and interleukin-1(IL-1) in its surface .Methods 40 patients with complex extremity trauma were selected and divided into 4 groups randomly .These 4 groups were Ozone+VSD group and Ozonated Water+ VSD group ,VSD group and Control group ,and received ozone combined VSD treatment ,ozonated water combined VSD treatment ,pure VSD treatment ,and traditional treatment .Each group contained 10 patients .Comparison of clinical effect ,bacteria loads and the expression of FGF and IL-1 in wound surface was made in 4 groups . Results The average cure time ,average replacing frequency and infection rate in Control group were (31 .5 ± 6 .6)days ,(15 .4 ± 3 .9) times and 40% respectively .The average cure time ,twice VSD cases and infection rate in VSD group were (19 .2 ± 2 .3)days , 5 cases and 10% respectively .There were no case of infection or received twice VSD treatment in Ozone + VSD group and Ozonated Water+VSD group .The average cure time were (14 .9 ± 2 .7) days and (14 .1 ± 3 .0) days .The Ozone+ VSD group and Ozonated Water+VSD group had best clinical effect ,and the Ozonated Water+ VSD group had least bacteria loads in wound surface (P<0 .05) .The expression of FGF and IL-1 in 4 group had obvious differences ,and it had statistical significance(P<0 .05) .Conclusion Both ozone or ozonated water combined VSD treatment could decrease IL-1 and increase FGF expression ,accelerate recovery time ,inhibit bacterial infection ,especially ozonated water combined VSD treatment had better effect .
