MODERN APPROACHES IN MANAGING WOUND DEFECTS IN CHILDREN WITH SURGICAL INFECTION

The results of treatment of 57 children with wound defects of soft tissues that have appeared at the background of surgical infections of various origins have been analyzed. The causes of the wound defects formation were analyzed according to the T.I.M.E. system.[7,8,9]. While treating the wound defects the strategy of creating the conditions close to the ones in an acute wound was followed («Wound bed preparation») [7,8,11]. We used several types of debridement aimed at shortening the phases of the wound process with the following closure of the wound defects by different methods [1,2,5,7]. The assessment of the effectiveness of local treatment was carried out taking into account the nature and severity of the phases of the wound process by the method of clinical observation of the state of the wound (the severity of symptoms of inflammation, the nature and amount of exudate, the presence and appearance of granulations, the presence of signs of wound epithelialization and scarring, the size of the wound), microbiological, cytological and histology and research [10]. The study revealed factors that disrupt wound healing during primary surgical treatment, in the management of foci of surgical infection, in the management of postoperative wounds, in the treatment of pressure ulcers in children with neurological pathology. During the initial surgical treatment of the received wounds, its inadequacy was noted - the abandonment of necrotic, defective tissues, foreign bodies, the presence of an undiagnosed infection, the absence or inadequate antibiotic therapy, constant tension of the skin edges, impaired blood flow and innervation, inadequate sanitation and drainage. The use of modern innovative technologies in wound management reduces hospital stay, reduces the duration of the use of antibiotics and other medications, contributes to a good cosmetic effect. Application of the current innovative technologies in wounds treatment shortens the hospital stay, decreases the duration of the use of antibiotics and other medicines, and contributes to better cosmetics effects [1,4,6]. The current trends in wounds treating with the choice of local treatment according to the phases of the wound process are presented in this article. The methods of active wound defects therapy and different types of debridement considering their pros and cons are analyzed.
