Abstract:

Background: Healing of burn wounds is one of the most important health care priorities. There are various methods for treating hemorrhage. One of the most common methods for controlling it is that dressing with sulfadiazine is 1%. This dressing has many benefits, including extensive antimicrobial activity, reduced wound infections, and reduced burn death rates. However, there are significant disadvantages, including difficult access, high costs, sticking to the surface of the wound, creating scar, causing toxic effects on keratinocyte regeneration, laceration in the stomach, skin discoloration and reduced transparency, leukopenia, and met hemoglobin.Today, the use of medicinal plants in the control of wounds is increasing, one of the most important herbs in this field is Aloe Vera, considering the importance of burn wounds, the lack of uniform dressing to control it with minimal complications and the most effective and limited studies in this This study was designed to compare the effect of aloe Vera gel and sulfadiazine ointment. Methods: This study was a randomized controlled clinical trial. Patients with second-degree burns with burns less than 20% were randomly assigned to two groups of intervention (35 subjects) and control (n = 35). One day, for 30 days, the ulcer site Burn was grouped in group A with aloe Vera gel and in group two (control group) was dressed with silver sulfadiazine ointment and on the days of 1.3, 6., 10, 15, 22, 30 the characteristics and extent of the wound were accurately recorded. Data was then entered into the soft SPSS-21 software was analyzed and analyzed. Results: The results showed that there was a significant difference between the mean burn wound in groups Aloe Vera and Sulfadiazine (P = .004). At the beginning of the study, the extent of ulcers in the Aloe Vera gel group was 9.1 ± 2.2 cm and in the sulfadiazine group 8.9 ± 6.3 cm. On the fifteenth day, the extent of the ulcer in the gel group of aloe Vera and sulfadiazine was 1.2 ± 0.2 and ± 1.3 ± 0.6 cm, respectively. On the same day, the extent of the scar remained in the sulfadiazine group 01 1/0 ± 1 cm and in the Aloe Vera group was 0/5 ± 0/00 cm. Conclusion: The results showed that dressing with Aloe Vera gel in a shorter time period than silver sulfadiazine improved the burn wound. Also, the scar remained less than the remaining, due to the positive effects of Aloe Vera gel, cheapness and easy access, It is recommended that this combination be used to control burn wounds along with other therapies.
