Effect of Ultrasound Debridement on Serum Inflammatory Factors and bFGF, EGF Expression in Wound Tissues.
    Journal of the College of Physicians and Surgeons--Pakistan : JCPSP, 2019, Volume: 29, Issue:3

    To determine the effect of ultrasonic debridement on serum inflammatory factors of procalcitonin (PCT), highsensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), red blood cell deposition rate (ESR) content, and expression levels of wound tissue basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF).. An experimental study.. Department of Emergency, Dongguan People's Hospital, China, from February 2016 to February 2018.. A total of 80 patients with limb flap repair were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, with 40 cases in each group. Control group was treated with conventional surgical debridement, and the observation group was treated with ultrasound debridement technique. The effect was compared between two groups.. On the 1st, 3rd, and 7th days after flap repair, Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) scores in observation group were lower than those in control group (all p <0.001). On the 7th day after the flap repair, serum levels of PCT, hs-CRP, and ESR were lower in observation group than those in control group (all p <0.001). On the 7th and 12th day after flap repair, expression levels of bFGF and EGF protein in the wound tissue of observation group were higher than those in control group (all p <0.001). Infection with sinus tract formed after the flap repair in observation group was lower than that in control group (p=0.048).. Compared with conventional surgical debridement, ultrasound debridement technique can more effectively reduce postoperative inflammatory reactions, reduce postoperative wound infection, relieve pain in patients, promote the bFGF and EGF expression in the wound tissue.
