Objective: To observe the role of ozone solution on debridement and sterilization of burn wound.
Methods: In vitro sterilizing effect on common isolated bacteria from burn wound and debridement and sterilization effects on burn wound of ozone disinfectant (ozone solution) were studied.
Results: All the bacteria tested were killed in vitro by ozone solution. In addition, when ozone solution was applied on burn wound, its clearance rate of bacteria was 94.5% and the clinical effective rate was 97.1%.
Conclusion: Ozone is low in cost and high in effect which might be used as an agent for burn wound disinfection.
