简要总结
This study evaluates healing time in usage of honey and povidone-iodine over paraffin gauze as dressings in the treatment of acute laceration wounds. In Indonesia, especially in rural area, where most of the resources is limited and modern dressings are expensive and hard-to-find. The investigators tried to find an alternative which was easier to find and could act as a substitute of modern wound dressing.
The hypothesis of this study is honey and povidone-iodine could be a good substitute (or equal to) to paraffin gauze on acute laceration wounds.
Honey is chosen because of its versatility and already well-known to be used as a chronic wound dressing. Povidone-iodine was chosen as another alternative because it is still one of the most used substance in rural area as a wound dressing, but there is not enough study to support the usage of this substance. Paraffin gauze was chosen as a representative of modern wound dressing because it fulfilled the standard of wound dressing on acute wound, which is non-adherent and also moist.
详细描述
The investigator's team consists of five members, each have their own specific tasks and divided by two groups, which are ER group (first time encounter, informed consent, and intervention) and polyclinic group (routine wound care). All of the data are primary data. Data registry were taken by the team without involving any other party. Any intervention done to the participants were also done only by the team(suturing, wound care). Appointment for routine wound care was also made by contacting the participant through their cellphone numbers which were collected when they come to the ER.
The data of each of the participant was registered on a form which was pre-made by the investigators. It recorded the identity of the patient, history taking, physical examination, and also to record more detailed information about our intervention, such as the amount of stitches and how many and what kind of resources that have been spent on the participant.
Every sample will be categorized into 3 randomized groups of intervention; honey, povidone-iodine, and paraffin gauze, which will also be categorized by location of their wound; face and neck, upper extremity, and lower extremity. Participants on each intervention group are distributed evenly using stratified block randomization. Photos of the wound will be taken before and after the wound is cleaned, and after the wound has been sutured. Every patient will be asked to attend a predetermined schedule for wound care assessment. The wound will be evaluated by photos before and after the wound is cleaned, debrided, or have its sutures removed. Parameter of evaluation will be duration of wound healing per anatomical region, infection, cleanliness of wound, odor, exudate level, pain, itch, and total cost of wound care.
Every paper consists of participants' data that were collected on colored maps based on the intervention group (red: povidone-iodine, yellow: honey, blue: paraffin). At the end of the study, three of the team's members converted the data to be analyzed using Microsoft Excel and SPSS.
The investigators prepared beforehand the Standard Operational Procedures regarding any possibilities of adverse events, such as lidocaine toxicity and honey hypersensitivity and were already approved by the hospital's committee.

结局指标
主要结局
Wound healing time
时间窗: 28 days/4 weeks; day 0 is the day of the event. The participants was chosen very carefully by our strict eligibility criteria, so the investigators expect that the wound will heal on acute period
Measured by days, when was all of the sutures completely removed and the wound is completely approximated. We followed the guideline from American Academy of Family Physicians for timing for suture removal, so we will not remove the suture before the recommended time
次要结局
- Infection(28 days/4 weeks; day 0 is the day of the event. The participants was chosen very carefully by our strict eligibility criteria, so the investigators expect that the wound will heal on acute period)
- Exudate(28 days/4 weeks; day 0 is the day of the event. The participants was chosen very carefully by our strict eligibility criteria, so the investigators expect that the wound will heal on acute period)
- Pain level(28 days/4 weeks; day 0 is the day of the event. The participants was chosen very carefully by our strict eligibility criteria, so the investigators expect that the wound will heal on acute period)
