Effects of adjuvant hyperbaric oxygen therapy and real-time fluorescent imaging on deep sternal wound infection: a retrospective study.
Objective: Deep sternal wound infection (DSWI) is a rare but devastating complication that is estimated to occur in 1-2% of patients after median sternotomy. Current standard of care (SoC) comprises antibiotics, debridement and negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT). Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) appears to be an effective adjuvant therapy for osteomyelitis. The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of HBOT and real-time fluorescence imaging (RTFI) in a DSWI treatment protocol and their benefits on infection control.
Method: A retrospective analysis of DSWI management was performed. Enrolled patients were divided into two groups: HBOT group and RTFI group. Patients in the HBOT group received SoC, HBOT, NPWT and reconstructive flap surgery. Patients in the RTFI group received the same therapeutic plan as well as treatment with a RTFI device (MolecuLight i:X (MolecuLight, Inc., Canada) to achieve high-quality debridement. Infection status and short-term outcomes within three months were measured. Long-term outcomes were analysed at a 12-month follow-up.
Results: Of the 55 patients enrolled: 22 in the HBOT group and 33 in the RTFI group. Infection control status, evaluated in terms of white blood cell counts and C-reactive protein levels, antibiotic use duration, antibiotic costs, reinfection rate and osteomyelitis recurrence rate, were statistically significantly improved in the RTFI group (<0.001, <0.001, 0.042, 0.022, 0.049 and 0.022, respectively). Length of total intensive care unit stay and duration of complete healing were statistically significantly decreased in the RTFI group (<0.001 and 0.046, respectively).
Conclusion: Patients with DSWI can benefit from HBOT, especially in terms of in-hospital mortality. RTFI can be used to eliminate bacterial burden and achieve high-quality debridement, which considerably improves infection control and clinical outcomes.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Wound Care (JWC) is the definitive wound-care journal and the leading source of up-to-date research and clinical information on everything related to tissue viability. The journal was first launched in 1992 and aimed at catering to the needs of the multidisciplinary team. Published monthly, the journal’s international audience includes nurses, doctors and researchers specialising in wound management and tissue viability, as well as generalists wishing to enhance their practice.
In addition to cutting edge and state-of-the-art research and practice articles, JWC also covers topics related to wound-care management, education and novel therapies, as well as JWC cases supplements, a supplement dedicated solely to case reports and case series in wound care. All articles are rigorously peer-reviewed by a panel of international experts, comprised of clinicians, nurses and researchers.
Specifically, JWC publishes:
High quality evidence on all aspects of wound care, including leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, the diabetic foot, burns, surgical wounds, wound infection and more
The latest developments and innovations in wound care through both preclinical and preliminary clinical trials of potential new treatments worldwide
In-depth prospective studies of new treatment applications, as well as high-level research evidence on existing treatments
Clinical case studies providing information on how to deal with complex wounds
Comprehensive literature reviews on current concepts and practice, including cost-effectiveness
Updates on the activities of wound care societies around the world.
