Zusammenfassung
In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird eine Metaanalyse zur Studienlage zur VAC-Therapie in der klinischen Anwendung vorgestellt. Untersucht wurden dabei v. a. die Bereiche chronische Wunde, akute Wunde, posttraumatische Weichteildefekte, Kompartmentsyndrom und Verbrennungen. Die Publikationen wurden auf Wertigkeit, Aussagekraft hinsichtlich Komplikationen, sowie auf die Wirtschaftlichkeit des Verfahrens hin untersucht.
Die Ergebnisse der Studien werden diskutiert und daraus therapeutische Empfehlungen abgeleitet. Die Ergebnisse unserer Analyse zeigen, dass mit der Vakuumtherapie ein wertvolles Verfahren im integrierten Therapiekonzept der Weichteilrekonstruktion zur Verfügung steht, aber zu wenig prospektive klinische Studien vorliegen, um alle die im klinischen Einsatz beobachteten positiven Effekte wissenschaftlich zu untermauern und damit auch eine solide Grundlage für die wirtschaftliche Effizienz des Verfahrens zu schaffen.
Abstract
This study presents the results of a meta-analysis based on the literature dealing with the clinical applications of vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) in the areas of chronic wounds, acute posttraumatic wounds, compartment syndromes, or injuries of the upper extremities. The studies were analysed for validity, significance of conclusion with respect to success rate, publications, and economic efficacy.
The data show that with VAC a very valuable technique has been added to an integrated therapeutic concept of soft tissue reconstruction. However, clinical data from prospective randomised trials to support some of the positive aspects seen in the daily clinical application of the technique are still missing. These would create a sound basis demonstrating the economic efficacy of the technique.
