A comparison of Zenoderm with DuoDERM E in the treatment of split skin graft donor sites.

A prospective, randomised, controlled study compared Zenoderm (ZM) with DuoDERM E (DE) in the treatment of split skin graft donor areas in 64 patients. The donor site comfort was similar in the two groups. DE usage resulted in significantly faster healing but also a higher leakage rate than ZM. Two patients in the ZM group developed infection in their donor sites. The cost is significantly less with ZM than DE.

Evaluation of surgical tapes for wound closure.

The performance of four wound closure tapes was evaluated by a series of standardized tests. The tapes examined in this study were a nonwoven microporous tape, a nonwoven microporous reinforced tape, a gauze tape, and a polyurethane tape. The performance of these tapes was assessed by measuring their breaking strength, degree of elongation under loading, adhesion to skin, air and water vapor transmission, and bacterial growth under the tape. On the basis of these in vitro and in vivo studies, the nonwoven microporous tape is recommended for skin closure. This tape has a nonwoven microporous structure with an adhesive that aggressively adheres to the underlying skin. It is strong enough to resist breakage during clinical use and elongates sufficiently to prevent blister formation. Its microporous structure permits rapid air transmission in vitro and results in an environment that is antithetical to bacterial growth.

Prevention of malodor from intraoral gauze tamponade with the topical use of clindamycin.

Azulene ointment with a small dose of clindamycin was used topically in eight patients with maxillary cancer with the intent to inhibit the malodor that originates from a gauze tamponade applied to the postoperative maxillary bony defect. The malodor was either markedly decreased or eliminated in all cases. Concurrent with the decrease or elimination of the malodor, anaerobic microorganisms such as Bacteroides and Peptostreptococcus, which are considered to be involved in the generation of malodor, also became undetectable.
