They were divided into two groups: (i) Closed soft tissue injuries, i.e. bruises, hvmatomata, etc.; and (2) joint injuries, i.e. sprains. One hundred consecutive cases of each type were collected, alternate cases being given Varidase Buccal, i tablet (streptokinase IO,OOO units/ streptodornase minimum of 2,500 units) q.i.d. for three days.
