Observations on the clinical efficacy of rhaFGF combined with Vitamin B complex for patients with Severe Recurrent Aphthous Ulcer
Treatment of severe recurrent aphthous ulcer (RAU)
Abstract
Objectives: To observe the therapeutic effect of rha FGF combined with vitamin B complex on severe recurrent aphthous ulcers (RAUs).
Methods: Ninety patients with severe RAU (grade III and IV) admitted to Chinese PLA General Hospital from May 2018 to May 2019 were selected and divided into two groups using a random number table, 45 patients/group. Patients in the control group gargled with a mixture of vitamin B complex (250 ml of 9% normal saline +250 ml of vitamin B complex +160,000 U of gentamicin +25 ml of lidocaine) after oral cleaning; patients in the observation group gargled with a mixture of the same ratio after oral cleaning and then sprayed rhaFGF on their oral ulcers. The clinical symptoms and treatment effects of the 2 groups within 1 week of medication were compared.
Results: The total effective rate of treatment was 97.78% in the observation group and 82.22% in the control group; the difference was statistically significant (P <0.05). The time to ulcer pain disappearance and eating recovery and the ulcer healing time in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group (P <0.05).
Conclusion: rhaFGF combined with vitamin B complex has a significant therapeutic effect for patients with severe RAU; it can relieve pain and illness faster and shorten the healing time of ulcers.
