Abstract
Objective
To evaluate the efficacy of external application Ichthammol ointment for the treatment of hordeolum.
Methods
This is a prospective randomized controlled study.The data of 1 430 eyes of 1 430 patients with hordeolum from Jan. 2018 to Dec. 2018 were collected and analyzed.All cases were divided into two groups according to the random number table, with 715 eyes of 715 cases in each group.The clinical trial group applied with conventional treatment and external application of Ichthammol ointment. And the control group applied with conventional treatment.The efficacy of treatment of two groups were observed.
Results
The patients satisfaction of the trial group was 91.47%(654/715), and 87.69%(627/715) of the control group(χ2=5.462, P=0.019). The effective rate was 83.36%(596/715) in the trial group and 60.42% (432/715)in the control group (χ2=93.069, P=0.000). The recovery time of the trial group was (5.4±2.9)days, and (8.2±4.6)days of the control group. The differences were statistically significant(t=13.47, P=0.003).
Conclusion
The external application of Ichthammol ointment can significantly reduce the inflammation and edema of hordeolum, and promote recovery.
