The problem of adequate drainage of the wound, after opening of the inflammatory infiltrate is particularly relevant in the treatment of patients with phlegmons in the deep spaces of the maxillofacial area: the pharyngeal, pterygo-maxillary, sub temporal, parotid-masticatory areas and neck, including the tissue of the cervical neurovascular bundle [1, 3, 4, 8].
However, in the treatment of purulent wounds, classical aspiration is often ineffective due to the suction-obstructive effect. In connection with the mentioned above, it is necessary to improve the methods and devices for vacuum aspiration in maxillofacial surgery [2, 5, 6, 7].
In recent years, a large number of methods have been proposed for treating these pathological conditions using various devices, antiseptic drugs, ointment compositions, hyperbaric oxygenation, low-frequency ultrasound and laser irradiation. Despite the progress made, complications that threaten the lives of patients are increasingly common: sepsis, meningitis, cavernous sinus thrombosis, mediastinitis. In this regard, the development of new methods and devices for the treatment of acute purulent-inflammatory processes in the maxillofacial area by changing their design or the material from which they are made is one of the urgent tasks of maxillofacial surgery.
The purpose of the study: to increase the efficiency of drainage of tissues with phlegmons of the maxillofacial area and neck using vacuum drainage.
MATERIALS AND METHODS OF RESEARCH
All procedures, conducted in the study with the participation of patients, complied with the ethical standards of the institutional and national research committee, as well as the 1975 Helsinki Declaration and its 1983 revision.
Recently, more and more active using of drainage aspiration devices with an optimal shape and properties takes place. At the same time, the physical factor of the treatment of a postoperative wound is used, that is vacuum. For the treatment of patients with phlegmons of the maxillofacial area and neck at the stage of exudation, active drainage of purulent cavities was applied. The "Method of drainage of purulent wounds of the maxillofacial area and the device for its drainage" was used, application No. 2018 02696 from 16.03.18.
It was carried out the diagnostics and complex treatment of 60 patients with odontogenic phlegmons who were hospitalized in the department of maxillofacial surgery on the basis of the Department of Surgical and Therapeutic Dentistry of the State Establishement "Zaporizhzhya Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education of the Ministry of Health of
Ukraine". Patients were divided into 2 groups: 1 gr. - 45 patients were treated with the traditional method. 2 gr. - 55 patients, the treatment of which was performed in a traditional way and vacuum drainage of purulent wounds at the stage of exudation was applied as well.
Upon admission to the hospital, all patients were given a complex examination. Surgery was performed according to the standard technique under the local anesthesia, and under general anesthesia, depending on the prevalence of the inflammatory process. It consisted from a wide dissection and drainage of a purulent focus. As a rule, during the opening of the phlegmon, the "causative" tooth, which was the source of infection was removed. Cytological monitoring of the wound condition was performed as a criterion of the effectiveness of the therapy: for the first time - after opening and drainage of the suppurative focus, on the third, on the fifth and seventh days of the treatment.
The use of vacuum drainage increased the efficiency of wound exudate evacuation and led to a decrease in the number of complications due to the likelihood of the spread of the inflammatory process in neighboring cell spaces.
To ensure the physiological nature of wound healing, the form of the drainage device copied the form of a purulent cavity. It was made individually according to the shape of the patient's purulent cavity, which reduced the probability of bedsores in the wound. Installing the drainage, the limiter immersion was covered with a grease based on the ointment that serves as a sealing part of this device.
The device was made of medical plastics with through porosity and a discharge pipe, the size of the frame is less than the volume of the cavity of a purulent wound by 10-30%, the dimensions of the holes of the wall of the frame are 0.1-0.5 mm, and they are located on the surface of the device in contact with tissues (Fig. 1). Additionally, the device has an immersion limiter in the wound, where the discharge pipe is located.
The diameter of the holes on the surface is 0.10.5 mm. The number of holes, per 1 cm2 of the area of their location, is chosen because, according to the anatomical structure, the capillaries in the striated muscles have a clearance of 5-6 microns, and, the nature of the porosity of the vacuum device for drainage depends on it (Fig. 2). The optimal size of the holes should be in the range of 0.1-0.5 mm., they will expel well the exudate with a diameter of this kind and the germination of capillaries into the lumens of the holes will not occur.
Fig. 1. The device is shown on the illustration: 1. The device made of medical plastics to preserve the volume of the cavity. 2. Discharge pipe for exudate outflow. 3. Immersion limiter in the interstitial cavity
It is very important fact that it is not technically possible to make a hole in the device less than 0.5 mm.
Blood pressure in the pre-capillaries also plays an important role in the choice of the negative pressure value in the device, since it should not be more than in the capillaries of the wound. The better the conditions of exudation in the wound, and therefore, the more the blood pressure drops in the arterial segment of the capillary bed.
Average blood pressure in capillaries differs with relative stability; on arterial sections of capillaries of the pulmonary circulation it is 30-50 mm Hg, and on venous sections, due to energy consumption for overcoming resistance along the length of the capillary and filtration, it decreases to 25-15 mm Hg
A significant effect on capillary blood pressure and its dynamics during the capillary has a venous pressure. Therefore, the amount of negative pressure in the wound was maintained within 15-12 mm Hg. It was carried out under the control of an artificial pressure-generating apparatus.
The obtained laboratory research data were carried out in the International System of Units and processed by methods of variation statistics using the MedStat package and the statistical package EZR v.1.35 (Saita-ma Medical Center, Jichi Medical University, Saitama,
Japan, 2017), which is a graphical interface to RFSC (The R Foundation for Statistical Computing, Vienna, Austria)

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Observations showed a positive dynamics of the clinical course of phlegmon in the treatment of patients of the second group with vacuum drainage of wounds in addition to the main treatment method. The length of hospital stay was reduced, compared with patients in the first group. A cytological examination of smear samples was conducted on the third, fifth, seventh days in 2 groups of traditional treatment and after conducting an active vacuum drainage of wounds.
The improvement of the clinical picture and stabilization of the general condition in 53 (96.4%) patients of the second group was noted on the 2.4±0.7 day after surgery, in 43 (95.6%) patients of
the first group - on 3.7±0.6 day; the intensity of the pain syndrome decreased on average by on 3.2±0.4 day. In 48 (87.3%) patients of the second group of suppuration was absent already on 2.4±0.6 day, the formation of granulations - on 3.2±0.5 day, and complete cleansing and convergence of the wound edges - on 6.2±0.7 day. In 4 patients of the first and second groups, the healing time of the postoperative wound was longer: the cessation of suppuration was noticed on 6-7th day, the appearance of granulations - on 7-8th day, complete cleansing, and the marginal convergence of the wound - by 11.2±0.8 day p<0.001 (table).

Superacryl medical drainage device proposed by us does not irritate the soft tissues of the wound cavity, is harmless to the body, has sufficient strength, does not deform and does not change its volume; at the moment of changing body temperature it maintains a smooth surface; has low thermal conductivity to maintain a constant temperature, of soft tissues containing the frame, it is easily disinfected; has a small proportion. Each time using this device, it is modeled individually, which ensures the accordance with the walls of the cavity and prevents a smaller percentage of the occurrence of bedsores. Through the use of immersion limiter in the cavity, the constancy of negative pressure and hermetic marginal adhesion to the wound is ensured.
The criterion for removing the device from the tissues was taken into account according to objective and subjective data: the state of health began to improve the next day after opening the phlegmons in both groups, eating food in the second group became much easier on 2nd day after surgery, the pain syndrome subsided after surgery in case of the absence of the spread of the inflammatory process in the adjacent anatomical spaces.
Wound clearance began on 2nd-3rd day 8 it was, covered with fibrin, at the bottom of the wound by the third day, the first granulation tissue appeared, in both groups. In the second group, it occupied the entire bottom of the wound. The calculation of the volume (V) of the purulent cavity from the imprint was carried out using the formula V=n r2 h. After the calculations, the average volume of the purulent
cavity was approximately 10.5 cm3. After 3 days, measurements were done one more time. V=7.2 cm3 and this shows that approximately the volume of the purulent cavity decreases by 30 % in the second group, and on the fourth day the evacuation of traces of serious exudates was not observed, and the device was removed.
Epithelization of the edges of the wound surface was gradual. Already on the 2nd day after the start of treatment, it was noticed that the patient's body temperature dropped to 37.0° C, general blood test revealed a gradual decrease in the number of white blood cells to an average of 10-12 * 109, ESR did not decrease so quickly and remained above normal indices before discharge the patient from the hospital and ranged from 20-27 mm/h.
Cytological examination of the wound during treatment of phlegmon on the third day revealed a large migration of leukocytes (from 40 to 120 in the vision field), neutrophils were present and there was also a small number of epithelial cells.
The degree of infiltration was decreasing gradually, every day. Its dimensions around the periphery of the wound varied. The method of assessing the dynamics of the inflammatory process in patients with phlegmons of the maxillofacial area (patent No. 135040 Ukraine) was used, it provides a simplified control while maintaining the reliability of the results.
As can be seen from the graph, the decrease in the volume and amount of infiltrate at the periphery of the wound in the second group was significantly less compared with the first group of patients (Fig. 4).

There were also patients in whom the inflammatory process did not stop in the primary limits, with 4 patients from two groups. On the graph the deviation towards the increase in the resulting curve from the normal course is reflected, on average by 5-8 cm.
It was diagnosed the development of complications and the tactics of treatment was corrected as well, namely, it was changed the approach to antibiotic therapy and carried out the additional surgical interventions regarding the opening of new spaces and revision of already open cavities according to the classical method.
Using the proposed device there were no from its contours.
CONCLUSIONS 1. Vacuum drainage of purulent wounds by means of the device improves the efficiency of evacuation of the exudate from the wound and does not require bandaging two or three times a day,
preventing the active phase (exudation) of the inflammatory process.
2. During vacuum drainage, there is a decrease in the number of complications, the occurrence of bedsores in the wound and prevents the spread of the inflammatory process in the adjacent intercellular spaces.
3. Vacuum drainage accelerates the onset of the second phase of the inflammatory process, reducing the dynamics of the course of the disease and the patient's recovery at least twice.
