Dialkyl Carbamoyl Chloride-Coated Dressing Prevents Macrophage and Fibroblast Stimulation via Control of Bacterial Growth: An In Vitro Assay. Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10091825. [PMID: 36144427 PMCID: PMC9502631 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms10091825] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Revised: 07/27/2022] [Accepted: 09/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
In this work, we evaluated the direct effect of a dialkyl carbamoyl chloride (DACC)-coated dressing on Staphylococcus aureus adhesion and growth in vitro, as well as the indirect effect of the dressing on fibroblast and macrophage activity. S. aureus cultures were treated with the dressing or gauze in Müller-Hinton medium or serum-supplemented Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium. Bacterial growth and attachment were assessed through colony-forming units (CFU) and residual biomass analyses. Fibroblast and macrophage co-cultures were stimulated with filtered supernatants from the bacterial cultures treated with the DACC-coated dressing, following which tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α/transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 expression and gelatinolytic activity were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and zymography, respectively. The DACC-coated dressing bound 1.8−6.1% of all of the bacteria in the culture. Dressing-treated cultures presented biofilm formation in the dressing (enabling mechanical removal), with limited formation outside of it (p < 0.001). Filtered supernatants of bacterial cultures treated with the DACC-coated dressing did not over-stimulate TNF-α or TGF-β1 expression (p < 0.001) or increase gelatinolytic activity in eukaryotic cells, suggesting that bacterial cell integrity was maintained. Based on the above data, wound caregivers should consider the use of hydrophobic dressings as a first option for the management of acute or chronic wounds.

Abstract
Objectives: The aim was to identify the benefits of using Dialkyl Carbamoyl Chloride for the treatment of biofilms in wounds. Methods: This is an integrative literature review that aimed to answer the guiding question: “What are the benefits of using Dialkyl Carbamoyl Chloride in the healing of skin lesions?”. The article selection stages resulted in 13 articles included. Results: The selected articles were grouped into two groups, namely: prevention and treatment of infection in wounds and prevention of surgical site infection, with nine productions in the first group and four in the second. Studies have shown that Dialkyl Carbamoyl Chloride attenuates colonization symptoms, such as odor, pain complaints and oozing, in addition to aiding in the prophylactic management of wound biofilm. Evidence indicates that dressings with Dialkyl Carbamoyl Chloride have no adverse effects, making them viable and safe options for chronic, acute and, mainly, infected injuries. Conclusion: It was identified that Dialkyl Carbamoyl Chloride was able to promote beneficial actions in the treatment of wounds, especially those of greater complexity. The proper choice of dressings and coverings can contribute to the rational use of existing technologies and antimicrobials, culminating in cost reduction and promotion of quality of life for individuals with chronic wounds.

Asuku M, Yu TC, Yan Q, Böing E, Hahn H, Hovland S, Donelan MB. Split-thickness skin graft donor-site morbidity: A systematic literature review. Burns 2021; 47:1525-1546. [PMID: 33781633 DOI: 10.1016/j.burns.2021.02.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2020] [Revised: 12/08/2020] [Accepted: 02/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
The purpose of this systematic literature review is to critically evaluate split-thickness skin graft (STSG) donor-site morbidities. The search of peer-reviewed articles in three databases from January 2009 to July 2019 identified 4271 English-language publications reporting STSG donor-site clinical outcomes, complications, or quality of life. Of these studies, 77 met inclusion criteria for analysis. Mean time to donor-site epithelialization ranged from 4.7 to 35.0 days. Mean pain scores (0-10 scale) ranged from 1.24 to 6.38 on postoperative Day 3. Mean scar scores (0-13 scale) ranged from 0 to 10.9 at Year 1. One study reported 28% of patients had donor-site scar hypertrophy at 8 years. Infection rates were generally low but ranged from 0 to 56%. Less frequently reported outcomes included pruritus, wound exudation, and esthetic dissatisfaction. Donor-site wounds underwent days of wound care and were frequently associated with pain and scarring. Widespread variations were noted in STSG donor-site outcomes likely due to inconsistencies in the definition of outcomes and utilization of various assessment tools. Understanding the true burden of donor sites may drive innovative treatments that would reduce the use of STSGs and address the associated morbidities.
