Abstract

To compare the efficacy and the cost-effectiveness of moist gauze dressings and a hydrocolloid wafer dressing (DuoDERM CGF), 70 patients with 97 pressure ulcers that were stage II and/or stage III were randomly assigned to one of two treatment methods: moist gauze dressings or hydrocolloid dressings. Efficacy was defined as the number of ulcers that completely healed. In this debilitated, poorly nourished group of patients, one ulcer completely healed in the moist gauze dressing group, and 11 healed in the hydrocolloid group. The per diem cost of the moist gauze dressing was $12.26; the per diem cost of the hydrocolloid dressing was $3.55.

两种压疮治疗方法的疗效和成本效益比较。
为了比较湿纱布敷料和水胶体薄片敷料(DuoDERM CGF)的疗效和成本效益,70例II期和/或III期压疮患者随机分配到两种治疗方法中的一种:湿纱布敷料或水胶体敷料。疗效的定义是溃疡完全愈合的数量。在这组虚弱、营养不良的患者中,湿纱布敷料组有1例溃疡完全愈合,水胶体组有11例溃疡愈合。湿纱布敷料的每日费用为12.26美元;水胶体敷料的每日费用为3.55美元。
