Abstract:

Objective

To explore the effect of "sandwich" method of negative pressure gauze packing in the treatment of severe abdominal trauma with bleeding.

Methods

A retrospective case-control study was used to analyze the clinical data of 40 patients with severe abdominal trauma combined with bleeding who were treated with gauze packing due to ineffective hemostasis by drugs, intervention and surgery in the Division of Trauma and Surgical Intensive Care Unit, General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command from January 2016 to September 2020. According to the gauze packing method, they were divided into a traditional gauze packing group (traditional group, 19 cases) and a "sandwich" negative pressure gauze packing group ("sandwich" group, 21 cases). The general data, injury severity score (ISS), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, intraoperative conditions and ICU resuscitation data, vital signs and laboratory tests, complications, prognosis and follow-up data were compared between the two groups.

Results

The vital signs of the two groups were improved after surgical gauze packing for hemostasis and ICU resuscitation support. In the "sandwich" group, the ISS scores [(26 ± 4) vs. (19 ± 6)], SOFA scores [(16 ± 3) vs. (13 ± 4)] and gauze packing time [(5.0 ± 1.2) d vs. (3.0 ± 0.7) d] were significantly higher than those in the traditional group (t = 4.494, 2.713, 6.404; all P < 0.05). The body temperature, heart rate, pH, hemoglobin, white blood cell count, procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, D-dimer, prothrombin time and activated partial prothrombin time levels during damage control surgery, on the 3rd day after surgery and during definitive surgery were statistically significantly different between the two groups (F = 27.590, 25.533, 39.777, 17.483, 4.486, 44.236, 5.628, 38.616, 8.689, 13.212; all P < 0.05). The postoperative infection (3 / 21 vs. 8 / 19) and overall complications (5 / 21 vs. 13 / 19) in the "sandwich" group were significantly lower than those in the traditional group ( χ2 = 3.872, 8.021; P = 0.049, 0.005); however, there was no significant difference in death between the two groups (1 / 21 vs. 3 / 19, χ2 = 1.348, P = 0.331). The discharged patients were followed up for (6 ± 3) months and all survived.

Conclusions

For patients with severe abdominal trauma and bleeding, gauze packing can improve their vital signs. Compared with traditional gauze packing, the "sandwich" method of negative pressure gauze packing can significantly extend the packing time, reduce systemic infections and decrease the incidence of complications.
