Abstract

Elderly burn patients are at increased risk for wound healing complications, as their injuries are more likely to become deep and wound healing is impaired. Furthermore, higher age is a known risk factor for burn wound infection. New biologic matrices are promising tools in the armamentarium of wound care specialists in application of hard-to-heal wounds. We present a case of an elderly burn patient with chronic wounds that were ultimately healed using marine omega3 wound matrix for wound conditioning and meek micrografting for closure. As the patient general health status did not allow surgery under general anaesthesia, skin grafting was performed bed-side under topical anaesthesia.

应用海洋omega - 3创面基质和分厚皮肤微移植物治疗老年大面积烧伤后慢性创面1例
老年烧伤患者发生伤口愈合并发症的风险增加,因为他们的伤口更有可能变深,伤口愈合受损。此外,较高的年龄是烧伤创面感染的已知危险因素。新的生物基质是有前途的工具,在装备的伤口护理专家在应用难以愈合的伤口。我们报告了一例老年烧伤患者的慢性伤口,最终使用海洋omega - 3伤口基质进行伤口调理和温顺的微移植术进行愈合。由于患者一般健康状况不允许全麻下手术,故在床边局部麻醉下行植皮术。
