Although healthcare quality has considerably improved in many countries, pressure ulcer is still a major health challenge worldwide.
The current study aimed to evaluate the effects of TWOT on the healing of pressure ulcers.
This study was a randomized controlled trial, and the convenient sample including 100 patients hospitalized in two university-affiliated medical-surgical intensive care units and one neurology unit located in Qazvin, Iran were studied. Patients with stage II-IV pressure ulcer on the sacral or ischial areas were randomly assigned to either the control or the experimental groups. The experimental group received a 12-day transdermal wound oxygen therapy. Wound status was assessed seven times before the intervention, as well as two, four, six, eight, ten, and twelve days after the intervention.
After 12 days of wound oxygen therapy, the number of patients with complete wound healing in the experimental group was significantly greater than that of the control group. Moreover, the total mean of wound area in the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group.
Transdermal wound oxygen therapy can effectively promote wound healing in patients with pressure ulcers.
尽管许多国家的医疗质量有了显著提高,但压疮仍是全球主要的健康挑战。
本研究旨在评估经皮伤口氧疗法(TWOT)对压疮愈合的影响。
本研究为随机对照试验,对伊朗加兹温市两所大学附属医院的外科重症监护病房和一个神经科病房收治的100例患者进行了便利抽样研究。骶部或坐骨部位有II-IV期压疮的患者被随机分为对照组和试验组。试验组接受为期12天的经皮伤口氧疗。在干预前评估7次伤口状况,在干预后第2、4、6、8、10和12天各评估1次。
伤口氧疗12天后,试验组伤口完全愈合的患者数量显著多于对照组。此外,试验组伤口面积的总均值显著低于对照组。
经皮伤口氧疗可有效促进压疮患者的伤口愈合。
