Objective. The present study is focused on risk factors of burn wound conversion in the local treatment with DDBM (dressing, dressing, Breitman-Menzul) dressing material in comparison with routine treatment based on gauze bandages with iodophors.
Methods. During the research work, we used retrospective data of 281 patients with second-degree burn injuries. The group was divided into two: those who were treated with DDBM dressing (n=130), and those who were treated with gauze bandages with iodophors (n=151). Patients were included in this study if: 1) their age was over 18; 2) they had II degree burns without scab; 3) admission was not later than 3 days after trauma; 4) predominance of II degree burns in case of its combination with full-thickness skin burns (III degree). A predictive model of burn wound conversion was designed with logistic regression.
Results. The analysis showed that usage of DDBM dressing led to wound epithelialization on 15th [13; 17] day and to the reduction of burn conversion frequency by 28% in comparison with the treatment with gauze bandages with iodophors. Body mass index was found to be a highly significant predictor: risk of wound conversion tended to increase strongly for patients with body mass index over 29.5 kg/m2. A set of such variables as the location of burns on the back of the body and buttocks, body mass index, and treatment method allowed development of a binary regression model with high sensitivity and specificity (97.2% and 99.5%, respectively).
Conclusions. The study identified the advantages of local treatment with DDBM in comparison with iodophors gauze bandages. The developed predictive model allowed calculating the probability of burn wound conversion with high accuracy.
