Abstract

Pressure sores are one of the most important and common complications of spinal cord
injury. Many preventive and therapeutic means have been purposed and tested. One of
these new attempts is the use hydrocolloid dressings. In this study, we compared the
therapeutic effects of hydrocolloid dressings with phenytoin cream and simple dressings.
91 stage I and stage IIpressure ulcers in 83 male paraplegic victims of the Iran-Iraq war
were randomly allocated to one of 3 treatment groups. Background and confounding
variables such as age, weight, duration before treatment, size and stage of ulcers were
identical in all groups. All patients received home visits by a physician for 8 consecutive
weeks and the ulcer status was recorded as complete or partial healing, without
improvement, and worsening. Complete healing, regardless of site and stage of ulcer,
was better in hydrocolloid dressing group (P<0.05). Complete resolution of stage II
ulcers treated by colloid dressing were better than simple dressing (P<0.005) but did
not differ from the phenytion group (P>0.05). Healing was more complete in the colloid
group than phenytoin and simple dressing groups in ischial (with P<0.05 and <0.005
respectively) and gluteal (P<0.005 and P<0.001 respectively) ulcers. Though not
significantly different in sacral ulcers we conclude that hydrocolloid dressing in
comparison with phenytoin cream and simple dressing is the preferred method of
treatment in stage I and II pressure ulcers. On the basic of feasible usage, patient
comfort and other benefits, colloid dressing is recommend in all stage I and II pressure
ulcers.
