Honey compared with silver sulphadiazine in the treatment of superficial partial-thickness burns.
Burn injury is associated with a high incidence of death and disability; yet, its management remains problematic and costly. We conducted this clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of honey in the treatment of superficial and partial-thickness burns covering less than 40% of body surface area and compared its results with those of silver sulphadiazine (SSD). In this randomised comparative cli...
متن کاملSilver sulphadiazine: a comprehensive in vitro reassessment.
The antimicrobial activity of silver sulphadiazine has been determined agonist 409 strains from 12 different genera. MICs were usually in the range 16-64 micrograms/ml. Multi-resistant species, such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Acinetobacter spp., were uniformly sensitive. MICs always exceeded the reported aqueous solubility of silver sulphadiazine. No resistant strains we...
متن کاملTopical silver sulphadiazine--a new drug for ocular keratomycosis.
The efficacy of silver sulphadiazine in human keratomycosis has not been evaluated so far. Encouraged by the success of an earlier experimental trial, a prospective, controlled, randomised double masked clinical study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of 1% silver sulphadiazine ophthalmic ointment in 20 eyes of mycotic keratitis. Miconazole 1% was used for comparative evaluation in another ...
متن کاملEvaluating the superiority of honey over silver sulphadiazine dressing in shortening healing duration of burn injury: an evidence-based case report
Background: Burn injury is a global health problem associated with major morbidity and mortality. Honey has long been used in wound management due to its ability to accelerate healing rates and prevent infection. This study is conducted to evaluate the efficacy of honey dressing in shortening healing duration of burn injury compared to silver sulphadiazine (SSD). Methods: A PubMed and Proquest ...
متن کاملInpatient silver sulphadiazine versus outpatient nanocrystalline silver models of care for pediatric scald burns: A value analysis.
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Scalds represent the most frequent pediatric burn injury. Inpatient nonsurgical wound management of small or medium-size burns (<20% total body surface area) represents a significant proportion of the cost of care, with nanocrystalline silver (NCS) and silver sulphadiazine (SSD) among the most commonly used dressings. Although several articles have described healing outcome...
