摘要

糟糕的经济形势、持续的政治不稳定以及2020年贝鲁特爆炸严重侵蚀了黎巴嫩医疗系统的能力。不安全的燃料供应和每天几个小时的限电使情况变得更糟。需要新的战略来提供在面临持续中断时更具弹性的医疗保健。Maggot治疗慢性和感染性伤口可以在黎巴嫩产生有意义的影响。当放置在伤口中时,药用蛆可以去除死组织,控制感染并刺激伤口愈合。它是一种便宜、易用、高效的治疗方法,即使在恶劣的条件下也是如此。这篇综述介绍了蛆疗法,并简要解释了其治疗益处,然后讨论了它在黎巴嫩医疗系统中的作用。最后,概述了将蛆虫疗法成功融入黎巴嫩医疗系统的先决条件和促成因素。

Maggot therapy could provide affordable and efficacious wound care in Lebanon and other low- and middle-income countries
The poor economic situation, ongoing political instability, and the 2020 Beirut explosion have seriously eroded the capacity of the Lebanese healthcare system. Insecure fuel supplies and the rationing of electricity to a few hours per day make matters worse. New strategies are required to deliver healthcare that is more resilient in the face of ongoing disruption. Maggot therapy for the treatment of chronic and infected wounds could make a meaningful difference in Lebanon. When placed in a wound, medicinal maggots remove dead tissue, control infection and stimulate wound healing. It is an inexpensive, easy to use, and highly efficacious therapy, even under austere conditions. This review provides an introduction to maggot therapy and briefly explains its therapeutic benefits before discussing the role it can play in the Lebanese healthcare system. Finally, the prerequisites and enablers for successful integration of maggot therapy into the Lebanese healthcare system are outlined.
