ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical effect of perforated bovine amnion combined with recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor (rb-bFGF) on degree Ⅱ burn wounds.METHODS: A total of 43 patients with small and medium-size thermal burn were collected, and the area of testing wound was 1% -2%. The wounds with the same nature were divided into three groups: perforated bovine amnion (treatment group), bovine amnion (control 1 group), and vaseline gauze dressing (control 2 group). All the three groups combined with rb-bFGF. RESULTS: Compared with control 1 group (P < 0.01) and control 2 group (P < 0.05), the treatment group could obviously decrease the healing time of deep degree Ⅱ burn wounds. For superficial degree Ⅱ burn wounds, compared with the control 2 group, the treatment group could also decrease the healing time; however, there was no significant difference between treatment group and control 1 group (P > 0.05). Dressing was not changed frequently, and the pain was relieved. Rash or other adverse effects were not detected in the three groups.CONCLUSION: The combination of perforated bovine amnion and rb-bFGF can obviously promote the healing of burn wounds.
