Comparison of topical honey and povidone iodine-based dressings for wound healing: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Zhang F, Chen Z, Su F, Zhang T. Zhang F, et al. J Wound Care. 2021 Apr 1;30(Sup4):S28-S36. doi: 10.12968/jowc.2021.30.Sup4.S28. J Wound Care. 2021. PMID: 33856925
The honey-based dressings demonstrated a medium-to-large effect in reduction of mean healing duration (Hedge's g: -0.81), length of hospital stay (-3.1) and VAS score (-1.2) as compared with the povidone iodine-based dressings. We present evidence (level 1b) in favo …
