Trial of Different Wound Dressings in Split-skin Grafted Third Degree Burns

Germany20 participantsStarted 2015-07

Plain-language summary

In plastic and reconstructive surgery, treatment strategies of second-degree burn wounds and split-skin grafted third-degree burn wounds aim at reducing infection and improving reepithelialization. Although previous studies indicate that burn patients benefit from newer wound dressings, only a few studies comparing different wound dressings can be found. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate time to reepithelialization, pain, microbiology, handling and costs of different wound dressings in patients with split-skin grafted third-degree burn wounds.
