Effekter av medicinsk honung vid sårbehandling : En litteraturöversikt / Efficiency of medical grade honey in wound management : A literature review

Nyberg, Henrik, Skaljo, Emina January 2022 (has links)
Bakgrund Honung har använts inom sårvård i tusentals år. Dock har den fallit i glömska i modern tid då sjukvården fick tillgång till antibiotika. Överutskrivning av antibiotika bidrar till att antibiotikaresistenta bakterier utvecklas. Nyare forskning visar att sårbehandling med honung uppfattas som lovande. Sjuksköterskor ansvarar för val av lämpliga förband vilket gör att sjuksköterskor behöver kontinuerlig utbildning för att kunna utföra en evidensbaserad praktik. Syfte Syftet med denna litteraturöversikt är att sammanställa forskningsbaserad kunskap om effekterna på sårläkning av medicinsk honung hos patienter med sår. Metod Litteraturöversikt bygd på tio vetenskapliga studier har genomförts som en strukturerad litteraturstudie med inslag av den metodologi som används vid systematiska översikter. Resultat Ett tema: God sårläkningsförmåga samt fyra huvudkategorier av effekter av medicinsk honung i sårläkningsprocessen: antimikrobiell effekt, understöd till sårläkningsprocessen, förbättrad livskvalitet samt säkerhet har identifierats i denna studie. Slutsats Medicinsk honung har god sårläkningsförmåga tack vare sin antimikrobiella effekt, understöd till sårläkningsprocessen, förbättrad livskvalitet för patienterna samt säker användning. Medicinsk honung kan användas på alla typer av sår i olika faser av sårläkningsprocessen. Medicinsk honung är säker att använda både för vuxna och barn. Sjuksköterskornas evidensbaserade praktik ger en möjlighet att bidra till minskningen av användandet av antibiotika genom att välja medicinsk honung i sårbehandlingen. / Background Honey has been used in wound care for thousands of years. However, in modern times it has been forgotten ever since antibiotics was introduced. Overprescription of antibiotics can lead to antibiotic resistant bacteria. New research shows promising results with medical honey in wound care. Registered nurses are responsible to choose an appropriate wound dressing, this stipulates the need for a nurse to continuously update their knowledge in wound care to be able to perform evidence-based practice. Aim The aim with this literature review is to compile research-based knowledge about the effect on wound healing medical honey can provide on patents with wound. Method This literature review based on ten studies has been conducted as a structured literature review with elements of a systematic review. Results One theme: good wound healing ability and four head categories of effects of medical honey in wound healing process: antimicrobial effect, support of wound healing process, improved quality of life and security has been identified in this study. Conclusions Medical honey has good wound healing ability because of its antimicrobial effect, support of wound healing process, improved quality of life and safe for patients to use. Medical honey can be used on all types of wounds in different phases of the wound healing process. Medical honey is safe to use both for adults and for children. Nurses evidenced based practice give an opportunity to contribute to reduce the utilization of antibiotics by choosing medical grade honey in wound care.

Antibacterial Activity and Factors Impacting Antibacterial Stability of Southwestern Ontario Honey

Pask, Jessica 22 August 2013 (has links)
This thesis presents results from a two part, prospective study using honey collected from Guelph and surrounding area in southwestern Ontario. The first part determined the antibacterial of honey by collecting 26 samples of honey over two summers (2011-2012) and conducting microbroth and agar dilution assays and comparing the results to those of the criterion standard, Medihoney™ (100% manuka honey paste). Some honey samples from southwestern Ontario had antibacterial activity that was not significantly different from that of Medihoney™. The second part evaluated the effects of storage and gamma irradiation on the antibacterial activity of highly antibacterial honeys. It was found that storage for 8 months at 4°C and -20°C reduced the antibacterial activity of honey. The antibacterial activity of honey was not altered after gamma irradiation. / Pet Trust Fund
