A promising direction in the post-procedural care of the skin and mucous membranes after the destruction of neoplasms is the use of medicines with anti-adhesive properties that prevent the adhesion and reproduction of microorganisms on the damaged epithelium and contribute to the fast tissues epithelialization.
OBJECTIVE
Effectiveness evaluation of the medical cooling hydrogel usage which contains natural anti-adhesive polysaccharides (2QR-complex) in post-procedural care after the skin and mucous membranes’ neoplasms destruction.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
Patients with neoplasms of the skin and mucous membranes after radio-wave (subgroup A) or chemical (subgroup B) destruction: patients of group 1 (n=25) after destruction used a medical cooling hydrogel containing a complex of natural antiadhesive polysaccharides (2QR-complex), patients of group 2 (n=27) did not use any drug therapy. Patients were followed up for 7—10 days after destruction.
RESULTS
The severity of itching and pain on the 1st and 2nd day after destruction in patients of the 1st A subgroup were 2 and 1.7 points on averaged, the 1st B subgroup — 2.2 and 2 points, the 2nd A subgroup — 4.2 and 5.2 points, 2nd B subgroup — 4.5 and 5.2 points. The complete absence of subjective symptoms in patients of the 1st group was registered on the 4th day of therapy, in the 2nd group — on the 6—7th day. Epithelialization of the wound surface in 92.3% of patients in the 1st group was recorded on the 5th day of observation, in 88.8% of patients in the 2nd group — on the 7—10th day. Pathological discharge from the wound surface during the entire observation period was completely absent in patients of the 1st group, and in patients of the 2nd group the presence of serous (40.7%) and serous-purulent wound discharge (18.5%) was established.
CONCLUSION
The use of a medical cooling hydrogel containing a complex of natural antiadhesive polysaccharides (2QR-complex) in patients after destruction of neoplasms has demonstrated optimal therapeutic efficacy which makes it possible to recommend it in post-procedural care in order to accelerate the regeneration of epithelial tissues and prevent secondary infection.
