title: [Study on puji ointment in treating 628 cases with second and third-degree burns and its decrustative effect].
abstract: The treatment of second and third-degree burns in small range with Puji ointment (PJO) application showed an obvious advantage over conventional medicine in ceasing exudate, antihydropism and decrustation (P < 0.01). Experiments on rabbits with third-degree burns treated by PJO with vaseline gauze as control revealed that the pH of the tested animal group became neutral more quickly than the control group, and the same as the healing of burns (P < 0.01). PJO application was found to be markedly effective in reducing exudate, antihydropism, preventing infection and speeding up healing. It also demonstrated that the specific decrustative function existed on third-degree burns in small size.
