UNASSIGNED: Background: With the rise of multidrug resistance among pathogens, especially in wound care management is of great concern. Hence, we designed to study the in-vitro activity of topical agents honey and @entity575 against wound @entity281 and compares @entity575 and honey dressings used in wound care. Methods: 172 isolates from burn and surgical wounds were isolated from @entity1 admitted to Nursing College, Changchun University Of Chinese Medicine, China during 2013-2014 are included in the study. 59 Pseudomonas, 41 @entity526 , 28 @entity794 , 25 @entity3274 , 11 @entity795 , 8 Acinetobacter were isolated. Susceptibility testing for honey and @entity7292 was done using the agar dilution method. 80 @entity1 were divided into 2 groups. Type 1 used Algivon with UMF12 honey coated dressing for 40 @entity1 and the other 40 @entity1 received Type II used Acti-coat @entity575 absorbent dressings. 30 @entity1 received ordinary dressings were included as control group @entity1 . Results: 50/59 (84.7%) Pseudomonas spp, 39 (95.1%) of @entity526 and 26/28 (92.9%) @entity794 were sensitive for @entity7292 . @entity3274 , @entity795 spp and Acinetobacter spp showed 100% sensitivity for @entity7292 by agar dilution method. All the isolates showed 100% sensitivity for honey at concentration. In type I - honey coated dressings consist of 40 @entity1 with 18 (45%) male and 22 (55%) female @entity1 . Type II - @entity575 -coated dressings consist of 40 @entity1 with 24 (60%) females and 16 (40%) male @entity1 . Conclusion: This study results showed positive efforts on improvising in wound dressings as a replacement to lower antimicrobial resistance and limit racial use of antibiotics.
