简要总结
This study will compare the NPWT using the NPD to the conventional wound dressing and specifically evaluating (i) reduction of wound surface area and depth, (ii) removal of slough and formation of granulation tissue
详细描述
Initial debridement of slough and necrotic tissue was performed in all patients at the time of admission and before their being allocated in a group.
it's 3 groups:
Group (A): conventional dressing :
acting by:preventing pus, the findings from the review indicate that decreasing frictional forces transmitted to the patient's skin is achieved by use of a dressing with an outer surface made from a low friction material.
The surface of the PU will be cleaned with normal saline and packed with sterilised gauze to cover the wound. Dressing changes will be performed once or twice daily depending on the soakage of the dressing.
