Objective To study the effect of sodium hyaluronate hydrogel in treating residual cavity on body surface after abscess drainage so as to provide new method to speed up the heal ing of residual cavity after body surface abscess drainageand reduce the frequency of dressing change and cl inic nursing workload. Methods From June 2007 to March 2008, 60 outpatients with body surface abscess drainage were randomly divided into hydrogel group (group A, 30 cases) and the control group (group B, 30 cases). In group A, there were 16 males and 14 females aged (49.5 ± 6.1) years, the disease course was (3.8 ± 0.6) days, and the volume of residual cavity was (4.19 ± 1.31) mL. In group B, there were 18 males and 12 females aged (50.2 ± 7.6) years, the disease course was (4.3 ± 0.5) days, and the volume of residual cavity was (4.04 ± 1.22) mL. There was no significant difference between two groups in gender, age, disease course and volume of residual cavity (P gt; 0.05). Residual cavity was smeared with 1 mL/cm2 sodium hyaluronate hydrogel in group A and drained by sal ine gauze in group B, the dressing was changed every two to three days. Residual cavity volume was recorded every four days, and the residual cavity volume, the frequency of out-patient dressing and the heal ing time residual of cavity were compared. Results The volume of residual cavity was (3.11 ± 1.12), (1.75 ± 0.95) and (0.55 ± 0.56) mL in group A, and was (3.39 ± 1.12), (2.64 ± 0.99) and (1.81 ± 0.81) mL in group B at 4, 8 and 12 days after treatment respectively, showing no significant differences at 4 days (P gt; 0. 05), but significant difference at 8 and 12 days (P lt; 0.01). Residual cavity heal ing time was (12.70 ± 2.78) days in group A and (20.27 ± 3.89) days in group B, and the frequency of dressing change was 5.53 ± 1.33 in group A and 9.13 ± 1.81 in group B, indicating significant differences between two groups (P lt; 0.01). Conclusion Sodium hyaluronate hydrogel can promote residual cavity heal ing, reduce the frequency of dressing change of out-patient and decrease the cl inic nursing care workload.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical effect of ultrasound guided puncture irrigation and traditional incision and drainage in the treatment of breast abscess. MethodsCNKI, Wanfang Database, CBM, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and EMbase were searched, at the same time complementary with other retrieval in any language to collect the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about comparison ultrasound guided needle aspiration with incision and drainage to treat the breast abscesses published by late August, 2015. Data related to clinical outcomes were extracted by two reviewers independently. Statistical analyses were carried out using RevMan5.3 software. ResultsEight studies were included, which involving 373 participants according to the inclusion criteria. The differences were statistically significant about the cure rate [OR=2.51, 95% CI (1.47, 4.28), P=0.000 8〕, effective rate [OR=7.45, 95% CI (2.29, 24.27), P=0.000 9〕, the heeling time [SMD=-1.77, 95%CI (-2.09, -1.44), P < 0.000 01〕, the length of the scar [MD=-2.88, 95% CI (-3.43, -2.33), P < 0.000 01〕, and the complications [OR=0.18, 95% CI (0.05, 0.62), P=0.007〕. Conciusions Compared with traditional methods of incision and drainage, ultrasound guided needle aspiration and wash has the more cure rate, the more effective rate, the less heeling time and scars as well as complications.
