Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the clinical efficacy of 10% povidone-iodine cream in the treatment of infected skin wounds.

Methods

Total of 50 cases with skin infection in Liyuan Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College were collected and divided into the observation group and the control group randomly (25 cases in each group). Patients in the observation group were treated by 10% povidone iodine cream, while the control group were treated with conventional dressings. The treatment efficacy of patients in both groups were compared.

Results

The effective rates were 96% and 80% in the observation group and the control group, respectively, with significant difference (t = 15.62, P = 0.02). The mean wound healing times in the observation group and the control group were (5.3±0.4) days and (10.3±1.3) days, with significant difference (χ2 = 8.654, P = 0.03).

Conclusion

The 10% povidone-iodine cream could effectively treat the skin wound and improve the prognosis of patients, and shorten the wound healing time.

Key words: Povidone iodine cream, Skin infection, Wound healing
