Effect of Vacuum Sealing Drainage on Soft Tissue Injury of Traumatic Fracture and Its Effect on Wound Recovery

PURPOSE: The current work is mainly to explore the effect of vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) on soft tissue injury (STI) caused by traumatic fractures (TFs) and its effect on wound recovery. METHODS: We first selected 90 patients with TF STI from May 2019 to May 2021, of which 40 patients (control group) received routine treatment, and the other 50 patients (observation group) were treated with VSD. The curative effect, rehabilitation (changing dressing frequency, healing time, and hospitalization time), pain severity, patient comfort, and complications were evaluated and compared. RESULTS: The observation group exhibited a higher total effective rate, lower dressing change frequency, complication rate, and shorter healing time and hospital stay than the control group, which are statistically significant. Statistically milder pain sensation and better patient comfort were also determined in the observation group. CONCLUSIONS: VSD is effective and safe in the treatment of TF-induced sexually transmitted infections, which can effectively accelerate wound recovery while reducing pain sensation and improving patient comfort, with clinical promotion value.
