Hemodynamic index of animals with burning injury treated with “Acerbin”

Abstract

Thermal injuries are wide spread among home pets and are represented as a recent problem of veterinary medicine because of the lack of anti-burn drugs adapted for use in veterinary medicine. In this regard, the aim of our work is to certify the vulnerary spray “Acerbin” for medical purposes in the treatment of thermal injuries of animals and to evaluate its therapeutic potency according to the dynamics of healing burn injuries and recovery of the blood cell composition. The research was carried out on 60 laboratory white mice. Thermal injuries of the skin integument on the dorsal surface of the croup were simulated; the “Acerbin” spray was further applied. To achieve the aim, the blood samples and planimetric measured tests of the area of burn defects were taken on the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 10th and 14th day of treatment. The samples were analyzed by the quantitative content of erythrocytes, thrombocytes, leucocytes and cHb (blood hemoglobin concentration) using an automatic hematological analyzer “Abacus vet 10”. Planimetric indicators of the area of burns were subjected to mathematical processing with the calculation of the rate of epithelization of the burn injury. The obtained hematological and planimetric digital indicators were processed by statistical methods of analysis, compared and then interpreted.
