The positive rate of bacteria of the wound before treatment was 5 5.0% (2 2 patients)in Fuchun powder group and 5 0.0%(2 0 pa-tients)in the control group(P>0.0 5 ),but they were 1 2.5%(5 patients)and 4 2.5%(1 7 patients)respectively on 1 0 days after treatment (P<0.0 5 ). The average healing time was (1 7.2 ± 2.1 )days in Fuchun powder group and (20.4±2.4)days in the control group in patients with deep Ⅱ degree injury(P<0.05).The healing time was(28.4±2.5)days in the Fuchun powder group and(35.2±2.8)days in the control group in patients with full-thickness degree thermal injury(P<0.05).
