Abstract Introduction Burn is one of the most severe traumas that causes coagulative destruction of the skin. The use of various products that accelerate wound healing in patients with burn may affect the patient’s survival and reduce the complications that may be seen. In the present study we aimed effects of subcutaneous ozone injection on second degree burn wound. Methods A total of 72 Sprague-Dawley male rats included in the study were divided randomly into three groups (control group (CG), silver sulfadiazine group (SG), ozone group (OG)) and each group was divided randomly two subgroups (as sacrificed on d7 and on d14).A deep second degree scald burns were created on the lower back. In CG subcutaneous 0.9% serum saline was injected daily into the burn area. In SG, burns were dressed with silver sulfadiazine daily and in OG subcutaneous ozone was injected daily into the burn area. Tissue hydroxyproline level measurement and histopathological evaluation were done. Results When the groups were compared in terms of weight change, no significant difference was found on the 7th and 14th days. In the evaluation made in terms of tissue hydroxyproline, tissue hydroxyproline level in OG was found to be significantly higher on both the 7th and 14th days (p < 0.001). In histopathological evaluations, it was determined that wound healing in OG was significantly higher than in the other groups. Conclusions According to the results, subcutaneous ozone therapy is more effective than silver sulphadiazine in the healing process of second-degree burn wounds and it can be safely used in the treatment of burn wounds.

ABSTRACT Background: Various studies indicate that the green tea has anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties. Moreover, a few studies have been carried out that demonstrate beneficial effects of green tea on burned patients. Materials and Methods: In this study, green tea, Vaseline, and silver sulfadiazine dressings were used as first-aid treatment to deep dermal contact burns in rats, compared with a control of nothing. After creating second-degree burn on the dorsum of rats, the treatments were applied for 15 min in four groups. Wound dressing changes were daily. Macroscopic study was performed on days 1, 3, 7, and 14 by using a digital camera and software processing of photos. Microscopic examination was done by pathologic evaluation of skin specimens on day 14. Results: We observed that green tea usage significantly decreased burn size in comparison to the control group (P = 0.004). Conclusion: Green tea is effective on healing process of second degree burn wounds.

Objective: Current treatment for second-degree burn wounds, including silver sulfadiazine (SSD) application, may cause side effects such as delayed and incomplete wound healing, leaving a scar. Traditional plants empirically used for burn wounds, such as Aloe vera, seem to be a promising option with good safety profiles. Methods: We therefore compared Aloe vera to SSD for second-degree burn wounds based on a review of clinical trials obtained by an organized search through the Cochrane, PubMed, and DynaMed databases. Three randomized clinical trials studies were selected, two of which were critically appraised. The third study, with a different outcome assessment, was analyzed separately. Results: Two studies showed that Aloe vera was more effective in treating second-degree burn wounds than SSD 1% with an absolute risk reduction of 0.2, relative risk reduction of 0.83–1.0, and number needed to treat five patients. The Aloe vera group showed faster healing, earlier epithelialization, and earlier pain alleviation. The third study combined Aloe vera with other herbs, which showed better healing ability and restored skin hydration than those with SSD. Conclusion: Each of the three articles stated that Aloe vera was more effective than SSD for treating second-degree burn wounds. Nevertheless, each of the studies lacked methodology and comprehensive data reporting.

ABSTRACT    Burn wounds remain a serious problem in several countries. The presence of burn wounds might trigger local or in severe cases also triggers systemic response. Immediate treatment is required to prevent further tissue damage. Silver sulfadiazine cream is commonly used as a burn therapy. However, long-time usage might cause negative side effects. Several effective alternatives with better safety are opted, including virgin coconut oil (VCO). Originating from Cocos nucifera, commonly known as the coconut plant, VCO is a product that contains a lot of beneficial substances, such as lauric acid, polyphenol, and alpha-tocopherol. Hydrolyzed VCO can be an alternative to topical drugs in second-degree burns as it increases Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) expression and collagen thickness in the burn wound healing phase.    This randomized post-test only with parallel-group experiment was done using Wistar rats induced to a second-degree burn. The effect of 70% and 100% on second-degree burn healing, measured by hydrolyzed VCO on VEGF expression and collagen thickness was observed between 6 and 12 days of therapy. VEGF expression and collagen expression increased higher in groups treated with 70% and 100% hydrolyzed VCO compared with the control group treated with base cream.

Aims: Solanum nigrum (S. nigrum) is a species of flowering plant from the Solanaceae family and one of the indigenous plants of Eurasia. Given the biological activities of this plant, like antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory ones, this study assessed its effects on the healing process of second-degree burn wounds in rats. We also evaluated its antibacterial activity against common pathogens of burn wound infection (i.e., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Acinetobacter baumanni). Methods: S. nigrum fruit extract was prepared by percolation and reflux methods. The extract was applied for the treatment of animal models with second-degree burn wounds. Parameters of wound healing and maturation, including collagen deposition, epithelialization, reduction of neutrophil migration, and angiogenesis, were evaluated. The antimicrobial activity of S. nigrum fruit extract against common pathogens of burn wound infection was assessed by the agar well diffusion method via measurement of zones of microbial growth inhibition. Results: Histological analysis showed a significant reduction in neutrophil migration by the 20% hydroalcoholic extract vs. control group (normal saline). In addition, we found that the 20% hydroalcoholic extract was more efficient than silver sulfadiazine in augmenting collagen deposition. S. nigrum hydro alcoholic extract also showed an inhibitory effect on S. aureus. Conclusion: S. nigrum 20% hydroalcoholic extract improved some of the wound healing parameters such as collagen deposition and inflammation. It also shows an inhibitory effect on S. aureus. So, it may have therapeutic effects on burns.

92 cases of second degree burn wounds treated in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2019 were selected as the research objects, and the clinical effect of eCASH concept treatment combined with nano silver dressing on the second degree burn wounds was studied. The patients were randomly divided into control group (n = 46) and observation group (n = 46). The control group was treated with conventional treatment combined with eCASH concept nursing, and the observation group was treated with eCASH concept combined with nano silver dressing. We found that the effective rate of the observation group was 95.65% higher than that of the control group (76.09%); the wound healing time of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group; the average VAS pain score of the observation group during wound treatment was significantly lower than that of the control group The total positive rate of bacterial detection in the observation group was 8.70%, which was lower than 28.26% in the control group; the incidence of complications in the observation group was 2.17% lower than that in the control group (17.39%); the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). These results indicate that eCASH concept combined with nano silver dressing in the treatment of second degree burn wounds has a significant effect, which can accelerate the recovery, reduce the pain, and effectively reduce the total positive rate of bacterial detection and the incidence of complications.
