Resumen
En caballos de trabajo, las heridas superficiales de diferente etiología son muy frecuentes y pueden causar severas secuelas. Usualmente los propietarios no cuentan con medios para adquirir medicamentos, por lo cual a través de la Facultad de Ciencias Veterinarias se les brindatratamiento sin cargo. A tal efecto, se desarrollaron tres formulaciones cicatrizantes (crema,pasta y polvo), utilizando alternativamente componentes como óxido de cinc, gentamicina,sulfanilamida, triclorfon y ácidos bórico, benzoico y salicílico, con distintos excipientes. Laeficacia de cada formulación fue evaluada en 18 equinos que padecían heridas superficialescomprometiendo piel y tejido subcutáneo, con y sin complicaciones. Las tres formas medicamentosas resultaron eficaces para lograr la cicatrización, siendo el tratamiento en formade pasta el que presentó mejor adherencia en heridas con exceso de secreciones (óxido decinc 50 g, sulfanilamida 5 g, triclorfon 8 g y ácido pícrico como excipiente csp 100 ml). Elmedicamento resistió condiciones climáticas adversas, sin ser arrastrado por lluvia o viento,permaneciendo en la herida por varios días. La formulación detallada resultó ser la mejoropción terapéutica, por requerir menor número de aplicaciones, demostrar buena respuestacicatrizal y evitar las complicaciones por miasis.
Superficial injuries of different etiologies are very common in work horses that may cause severe sequels. Owners sometimes can not afford medications for their animals. Three wound healing formulations (cream, paste and powder) are given for free at Facultad de Veterinaria in Corrientes, northeastern Argentina. They contain zinc oxide, gentamicin, sulfanilamide, trichlorfon, and boric, benzoic and salicylic acids with different excipients. Efficacy of each formulation was evaluated in 18 horses with superficial wounds that compromised skin and subcutaneous tissue, with and without complications. All of them where effective to treat wounds, being the paste formulation the one with best adhesiveness to lesions with important secretion (zinc oxide 50 g, sulfanilamide 5 g, trichlorfon 8 g, and picric acid as excipient qs 100 ml). In addition, this formulation was able to resist adverse climate conditions, like rain and wind, and remained on the wound for several days. We conclude that the paste formulation has the most desirable characteristics, because of the less number of applications needed during the treatment, a good cicatrisation effect, and protection against myiasis.
