Abstract

Aloe vera is a cactus plant that thrives in warm areas. Since ancient times, it has been used to treat acute wounds. However, the efficacy of aloe vera for burns and split-thickness skin graft (STSG) donor sites is inconclusive. In this study, we have applied pure aloe vera gel extract as an adjunct to dressing second-degree (superficial) burn wounds and assessed the time for complete epithelialization. The time taken for complete epithelialization of the wound was 11 days when compared to the normal (evidence-based) time of 14 days.

局部涂抹芦荟对加速皮肤烧伤伤口愈合的作用：病例报告。

芦荟是一种生长在温暖地区的仙人掌植物。自古以来，它就被用来治疗急性伤口。然而，芦荟对烧伤和分层厚皮移植（STSG）供皮部位的疗效尚无定论。在这项研究中，我们使用纯芦荟凝胶提取物作为二度（浅表）烧伤创面的辅助包扎材料，并对完全上皮化的时间进行了评估。伤口完全上皮化所需时间为 11 天，而正常（循证）时间为 14 天。
