6 - The possibility of using «Burnshield» bandages in patients undergoing outpatient treatment.

Abstract

During the treatment of superficial burn injuries pa6ents are o7en confronted with painful dressing changes. Therefor we o7en treat these wounds with very expensive materials like nylon mesh combined with animal collagen that can stay on the wound and slowly peel off during re--epithelializa6on. Due to our good experiences with the treatment of small burn injuries with pure natural silk as cost--efficient material, we now also started trea6ng large burn injuries for the first 6me with silk.
