Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of medical equipment, and particularly relates to a moisturizing device for burn plastic nursing. BACKGROUND

[0002] Burn is a common trauma that seriously affects the quality of life and appearance of patients. The treatment of burn wounds needs to go through multiple steps such as debridement, suture, and transplantation. Moisturizing is an important link that can reduce water evaporation, prevent wound drying and scabbing, reduce infection risk, relieve pain, promote epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation, and improve scar formation and maturation.

[0003] At present, the commonly used moisturizing methods are as follows:

[0004] Wet dressing method: that is, covering the wound with a dressing soaked in normal saline solution and replacing it regularly. This method is simple and easy to operate, but also has some disadvantages, such as the dressing easily dries, needs to be replaced frequently, increases the discomfort and infection risk of patients, the dressing adheres to the wound, may cause secondary damage to the wound when replaced, and the exudate of the dressing may cause infiltration and corrosion of the surrounding skin.

[0005] Hydrogel method: that is, applying a gel containing water to the wound, such as hydroxyethyl cellulose gel, polyethylene glycol gel, etc., and then covering it with a breathable dressing. This method can maintain the moisture of the wound, reduce pain, and prevent adhesion, but also has some disadvantages, such as the components of the gel may cause allergic reactions, the exudate of the gel may cause infection of the wound, the thickness and water content of the gel are difficult to control, and may affect the oxygenation of the wound.

[0006] Water mist spraying method: that is, using a special device to spray a solution in the form of mist on the wound, forming a layer of water film to maintain the moisture of the wound. This method can avoid the use of dressing, reduce the irritation and damage to the wound, but also has some disadvantages, such as the temperature and humidity of the water mist are difficult to control, which may cause low or high temperature of the wound, affecting the blood circulation and metabolism of the wound; the disinfection and sterilization of the water mist are difficult to guarantee, which may increase the risk of infection of the wound; the spraying of the water mist needs continuous power and water source, which is not conducive to the movement and rehabilitation of patients.
