Abstract
Background. The multifaceted microbiological etiological factor of surgical infection and differentiated sensitivity to antibacterial drugs determine the need to develop more effective means and methods of influencing the purulent microflora of wounds. Physical treatment factors, in particular, low-frequency ultrasound and ionised plasma flows, should be considered promising for solving this problem.
Material and methods. The research was carried out on the basis of the Scientific Center of Microbiology and the clinic of the Tashkent Medical Academy. Bacteriological studies of wound discharge wounds and biopsy material were carried out.
Results. Wound-sounding through a dioxidine solution is most effective against gram-negative bacteria, and ultrasonic cavitation in combination with iodopyrone is most effective against gram-positive microorganisms. Treatment of purulent wounds with low-frequency ultrasound through a mixture of iodopyrone solution and ascorbic acid is effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative microbes. Argon plasma flows have a high bactericidal effect mainly on gram-negative bacteria.
Conclusion. The obtained data substantiate the need to choose a physical method of treatment of purulent wounds depending on the species composition of the wound microflora.
