Efficacy of red and blue light irradiation combined with alginate dressing on wound healing after perianal abscess
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of red and blue light irradiation and alginate dressing on wound healing after perianal abscess.Methods A total of 106 inpatients with disposable radical perianal abscess in Linping District of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2021 to December 2022 were selected and divided into control group and study group by random number table method,with 53 cases in each group.The control group received routine care and health education,and the wound was treated with alginate dressing after surgery.The study group was received red and blue light irradiation on the wound based on the control group.The scors of pain,wound secretion exudate,granulation tissue growth,wound healing time,self-rating anxiety scale(SAS),and comfort postoperative lth,7th day and 14th day were compared between two groups.Results The overall analysis of pain score found an interaction between time and groups(P<0.05).Individual effect statistics showed statistically significant differences between and within the two groups at different time points(P<0.05).The overall analysis of wound infiltration score and granulation tissue growth score had no interaction between time and groups(P>0.05);individual effect statistics showed statistically significant differences between and within the two groups at different time points(P<0.05).Compared with control group,the wound healing time of the study group was significantly shortened(P<0.05).There were significant differences in SAS scores and comfort scores between and within the two groups before and after treatment(P<0.05).Conclusion The red and blue light irradiation and alginate dressing can reduce postoperative exudation with perianal abscess,accelerate wound granulation growth,promote wound healing,reduce pain and anxiety,improve comfort and the patients'life quality.It is worthy of clinical application.
