Abstract

Objective:To explore of the application effect of early escharectomy and skin grafting in elderly patients with burns prevention of complications and the quality of life improvement.Method:82 elderly patients with burns were selected in our hospital from August 2011 to October 2013,they were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group,41 cases in each group.The control group was given the late granulation scraping zonation grafting treatment,the observation group was given early escharectomy and skin grafting for treatment,the complications and quality of life of the two groups were observed and compared.Result:The complication rate of the observation group was 39.0%, it was significantly lower than 12.2% of the control group,and the survival quality scores of the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P0.05).Conclusion:In the treatment of elderly patients with burn,take early escharectomy and skin grafting operation treatment can achieve a significant effect,can effectively reduce the incidence of complications,improve the quality of life of patients,it is worthy to be popularized in clinic.
