Abstract

Background: Ghee and honey has been advocated and used as dressing for infected wounds by Sushruta (600BC). The gratifying results observed with the dressing have prompted this study which aims to establish its efficacy in chronic infected wounds over one year period A standardised ghee and honey dressing was used to treat: chronic post- operative wounds and infected per op wounds, Honey and ghee dressing markedly reduces the foul odour and discharge, significantly improving the quality of life. The study will tell us comparative result of honey and ghee dressing as compared to expensive vacuum dressing and the regular dressing materials. Innumerable Randomised Control Trials (RCTs) reported on honey dressing for infected wounds, there is substantial evidence that ghee and honey dressing has at least comparable results to other modes of treatment. The easy availability and low cost of this treatment makes it significant in developing countries. Specially in rural population, Required permission has been from the HOD of orthopaedics. Material and Methods: Total 20 patients with compound fracture and chronic infected wound, were studied during the period of March 2023 to June 2023 at BVP RMC Loni, Maharashtra. Honey and ghee were taken from a fresh sealed box in 50:50 portion according to size of wound and mixed well then it was applied on the wound directly and covered with gauge and, the dressing was changed is cleaned with sterile normal saline as compared to normal dressing materials ie betadin, povidon iodine ointment, spirit. All Patients data was collected and compiled in Microsoft excel and were statistically analysed using appropriate statistical test using SPSS software. Results: Majority patient were males. Mean duration of wound healing among honey and ghee dressing was 15.3 and of regular dressing was 8.9 days. Conclusion: Honey is one alternative solution that can be used for non-pharmacological therapy. Honey can be used as a topical dressing .........
蜂蜜和酥油敷料与普通敷料的效果比较:比较研究
背景介绍Sushruta (公元前 600 年)提倡并使用酥油和蜂蜜作为感染伤口的敷料。蜂蜜和酥油敷料明显减少了恶臭和分泌物,显著提高了患者的生活质量。这项研究将告诉我们蜂蜜和酥油敷料与昂贵的真空敷料和普通敷料的比较结果。关于蜂蜜敷料治疗感染伤口的随机对照试验(RCT)报告不胜枚举,有大量证据表明酥油和蜂蜜敷料至少具有与其他治疗方法相当的效果。酥油和蜂蜜敷料易于获得且成本低廉,因此在发展中国家具有重要意义。特别是在农村地区,需要得到骨科主任的许可。材料和方法:2023 年 3 月至 2023 年 6 月期间,在马哈拉施特拉邦洛尼的 BVP RMC 共对 20 名复合骨折和慢性感染伤口患者进行了研究。根据伤口大小,以 50:50 的比例从新鲜的密封盒中取出蜂蜜和酥油,混合均匀后直接涂抹在伤口上,并用纱布覆盖,然后用无菌生理盐水清洗敷料,与普通敷料(如贝特类、聚维酮碘软膏、酒精)相比,更换敷料。所有患者的数据均在 Microsoft excel 中收集整理,并使用 SPSS 软件进行统计分析。结果大多数患者为男性。蜂蜜和酥油敷料的平均伤口愈合时间为 15.3 天,普通敷料的平均伤口愈合时间为 8.9 天。结论蜂蜜是一种可用于非药物疗法的替代方案。蜂蜜可用作局部敷料 .........
