Objective: To observe the efficacy of liquid dressing combined with recombinant human epidermal growth factor in the treatment of diaper dermatitis in infants and children. Methods: Eighty-eight children were randomly divided into 45 cases in the treatment group and 43 cases in the control group

and all nursing staff performed hand hygiene standards. In the control group

only liquid dressing was given after the skin was washed and dried

while in the treatment group

recombinant human epidermal growth factor gel was given topically followed by liquid dressing. The treatment efficacy

onset time and adverse drug reactions were compared between two groups. Results: The cure rate was 73.33% in the treatment group and 51.16% in the control group

the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The onset time of the treatment group was shorter than that of the control group

the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: The efficacy of liquid dressing combined with recombinant human epidermal growth factor in the treatment of diaper dermatitis in infants and children is remarkable without significant adverse drug reactions

which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
