Lymphotropic therapy in treatment of donor site wounds in patients with full-thickness burns

The purpose of the study was the development and clinical evaluation of an alternative method for treating donor site wounds in patients with full-thickness burns. Materials and Methods. The study included 112 patients: 74 men (66.1 %) and 38 women (33.9 %) with full-thickness burns. The method of free autodermoplasty with split transplants was used. The average age of patients was 55.2±15.3. They were divided into three groups according to the method of postoperative treatment of donor site wounds. While treating donor site wounds we used film moisture-retaining dressings “MD” for the first group (n=39); film dressings “MD” combined with intramuscular administration of etamzilate and actovegin for the second group (n=36); film dressings “MD” combined with a new method of lymphotropic therapy of donor site wounds (RF patent No. 2639847, 2017) for the third group (n=37). The analysis of clinical and laboratory data, bacteriological, cytological and morphological studies, as well as statistical methods were used to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment...
