| Summary: | Dogs have known as human best pals at this time with a variety of roles and
functions. In the maintenance and carrying out its duties, the dog is very
susceptible to injury. The existence of these injuries causes many losses, so
handling should be done right and quickly. Binahong leaf is used traditionally for
a long time ago, but less practical, unlike the medicine form such as ointment. The
objectiveof this study was to determine the effect of treatment withbinahong leaf
ointmentfraction hexane extractconcentration 5% and 10% of thewounded
dogskin.Four local female dogs were used and treated by ivermectin anthelmintic
one week after the dogs were left to adapt. Three incision wounds were made by
lege artison the paracostal of the abdomen right side of each dog along a 6cm in
the vertical direction. Those three incision were coded A, B, and C sequenced
from the back to the front.Code A was a control, code B was treated by binahong
leafointmentfraction hexaneextraction of 5%, and code C was treated by binahong
leaf ointmentfraction hexaneextraction of 10%. The observations of wound
healingwas done visuallywith parameters such as swollen of wound, redness of
wound, the wetness and the linkage on both sides of the woundfor seven days.
Primary wound healing was achieved in all groups. Code C incision wounds
(treated bybinahong leaf ointmenthexaneextraction fraction10%) was faster and
better than code B (treated by binahong leaf ointmenthexane extraction
fraction5%),and code A (control). Thus, binahong leaf ointment hexane extraction
fraction of 10% is recomended to be used to treat wounds in dogs.
