Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 11
Abstract
This study was conducted to compare the efficacy of colostrum powder as an add on dressing with that of conventional dressing in the healing of chronic non-healing ulcer. Sixty patients with non-healing ulcer were treated with conventional dressing (povidone iodine, hydrogen peroxide) (Group 1) and another 60 patients were treated with add-on Bovine Colostrum (Group 2) for a period of 3 weeks. The healing of ulcer in both groups was determined by using Resvech Ulcer Healing Score (which utilizes 9 ulcer parameters) at weekly intervals for 3 weeks. There was highly significant increase in wound healing in the Bovine Colostrum treated group in comparision to the conventionally treated group, starting from first week upto third week. Bovine colostrum has significant wound healing property.
