Combined debridement is a new technique to deal with the complex chronic wounds. This review introduces several topical methods of combined debridement according to the various color classifications. Methods include combined sharp and hydrogel debridement, combined ultrasonic and enzymatic debridement, ultrasonic debridement combined with surgical debridement and vacuum aspiration on debridement, and other types of debridement. This article also explores why each combined debridement mentioned above can achieve a good effect.展开更多

Methods： Sixty female Wistar rats （weighting 200 ± 20 g） were randomly divided into normal control group, wound group and combined wound-local radiation （CWR） group （25 Gy local radiation post wound）, 20 rats in each group. Contents of IL-1β, IL-6 and IFN-γ and IL-4 in serum were measured and changes of adrenocorticotropic hormone （ACTH） and glucocorticoid （GC） in serum were analyzed by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and radioimmunologic assay, respectively at different time points post wound and radiation. Results： （1） The level of IFN-γ, one of the Thl cell cytokines increased significantly at 14 d post CWIL which was markedly higher than that in control group and wound group. However, the level of IL-4, IL-1β and IL-6, one of the Th2 cell cytokines, did not show obvious change. （2） Ratio of Thl/Th2 （IFN-γ/IL-4） in wound group and CWR group increased significantly at 7 d after wound and radiation, which suggested that Thl/Th2 balance drifted to Thl immune response. The ratio of Thl/Th2 in wound group returned to the normal level up to 14 d after the wound and radiation, while the Thl/Th2 ratio in CWR group increased persistently and was much higher than that in control and wound groups. （3） Level of serous ACTH and CC in CWR group increased at 3 d post wound and radiation, and among them, level of CC showed statistically significant increase, which was much higher than that in control and wound groups. Conclusion： Level of serous neurohormone CC in rats increased significantly immediately after wound and radiation; while the level of IFN-γ showed significant increase only up to 14 d after wound and radiation, and the Th1/Th2 imbalance sustained till 28 d post wound and radiation. In order to reduce acute damage caused by CWR, organic immune system and nerve system showed up a marked regulate effects simultaneously and mutually. Nonetheless, the excessive stress induced by CWR causes distur- bance of immunoregulation, which is one of the key reasons for delayed wound healing in CWR.展开更多

The single dosage varied from 1 to 8 Gy. Within 1 h after irradiation, two whole thickness circular cutaneous wounds corresponding to 2. 5% of total body surface area (φ =22 mm) were produced on the back of the animals (combined injury groups). Same wounds were produced on rats with no irradiation (single wound group). Wound healing was observed at different points after injury.Results After total body irradiation with the dose of 1,2,3,4,5,6, 7 or 8 Gy, the wound healing was obviously retarded as the dosages increased. The wound area remained was larger in the large dosage groups than in the small dosage groups. Seven days after injury, there was 33.5% wound surface left unhealed in the single wound group, whereas in the combined injury groups, 35.4%, 38.1 %, 41. 6%, 48. 8%, 53. 9%, 63. 7%, 69. 2% and 73. 9% of the wound surfaces remained unhealed, respectively. Statistical analysis showed marked correlations between the various times after total body irradiation and various dosages to the percentage of unhealed wound surface. Nine dose-effect relation formulae were deduced according to the statistical results.Conclusions In soft tissue trauma combined with radiation injury, the delay of wound healing is related to the dose of radiation inflicted. It is also related to the time between injury and time of observation.展开更多
