Abstract

Introduction: Chronic wound and its care has always been a health burden for patient, health care professionals and the entire health care system. There have been certain topical preparations available in market today for application in chronic wound management. In our study, we are comparing effects of cadexomer and povidone iodine ointment in context of reduction in bacterial overload, slough reduction, facilitations of granulation tissue formation, reduction in size of the wound and ultimately in percentage of wound healing and its cost of management. Aim: Comparison of outcome of Povidone Iodine Ointment and Cadexomer iodine Ointment in management of the wound. Methodology: This cross section observational study has been conducted among 40 patients diagnosed as chronic wound with 20 patients in each group. Student’s paired t-test and Pearson’s Correlation Coefficient is being used as statistical analysis. Results: The percentage of patient treated with cadexomer iodine ointment shows significantly (p<0.05) higher rate of wound healing along with significant reduction in bacterial overload and promotion of granulation tissue formation. Conclusion: Cadexomer as a vector with iodine ointment shows higher rate of reduction of biofilm, slough and debris with better rate of promotion of granulation tissue formation, thus leading to increased and effective rate of healing of wound as well as cost effective management of chronic wounds.
