Abstract
Objective: To analyze the therapeutic effects of traditional dressing change techniques and vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) techniques on skin and soft tissue injuries. Methods: 60 patients with skin and soft tissue injuries admitted to the hospital from October 2021 to October 2023 were selected. They were randomly divided into an observation group (30 cases) receiving VSD treatment and a control group (30 cases) receiving the traditional dressing change technique. The total effective rate, treatment indicators, inflammatory factors, and complication rate were compared between the two groups. Results: The total effective rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group, and the treatment indicators were better than those of the control group (P < 0.05). Before treatment, the levels of inflammatory factors were similar between the two groups (P > 0.05). After four weeks of treatment, the levels of inflammatory factors in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The complication rate of the observation group was lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: In the treatment of skin and soft tissue injuries, VSD can improve the total effective rate, shorten the treatment cycle, alleviate the degree of inflammatory reaction, and reduce the risk of complications.
