Background: In all burn care systems; first aid, covering, and transferring burn-injury patients to the hospital all have an important role in managing and achieving a successful outcome. It seems there are wide differences in the main methods of providing first aid and pre-hospital care on burn patients. Despite several researches, the epidemiological specifications, level of care, as well as offered treatments is various in different regions.

“…In the wound dressings, modern dressings are reported to achieve better burn healing than traditional dressings like silver SSD, although quality of the overall evidence is low 8. Additionally, the relative efficacy and toxicity of modern dressings have not been studied.…”

“…However, SSD is under criticism for causing wounds to dry up and not supporting optimal healing 10. Unlike SSD, modern dressings have the advantages of keeping a moist environment around burn wounds and effectively protecting the wound from exposure to pathogenic bacterium 8. Each of these modern dressings has its own features in achieving optimal healing.…”

Comparative effectiveness of different wound dressings for patients with partial-thickness burns: study protocol of a systematic review and a Bayesian framework network meta-analysis

IntroductionSelecting a suitable wound dressing for patients with partial-thickness burns (PTBs) is important in wound care. However, the comparative effectiveness of different dressings has not been studied. We report the protocol of a network meta-analysis designed to combine direct and indirect evidence of wound dressings in the management of PTB.Methods and analysisWe will search for randomised controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the wound-healing effect of a wound dressing in the management of PTB. Searches will be conducted in MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, the Cochrane Wounds Group Specialised Register and CINAHL. A comprehensive search strategy is developed to retrieve articles reporting potentially eligible RCTs. Besides, we will contact the experts in the field and review the conference proceedings to locate non-published studies. The reference lists of articles will be reviewed for any candidate studies. Two independent reviewers will screen titles and abstracts of the candidate articles. All eligible RCTs will be obtained in full text to perform a review. Disagreement on eligibility of an RCT will be solved by group discussion. The information of participants, interventions, comparisons and outcomes from included RCTs will be recorded and summarised. The primary outcome is time to complete wound healing. Secondary outcomes include the proportion of burns completely healed at the end of treatment, change in wound surface area at the end of treatment, incidence of adverse events, etc.Ethics and disseminationThe result of this review will provide evidence for the comparative effectiveness of different wound dressings in the management of PTB. It will also facilitate decision-making in choosing a suitable wound dressing. We will disseminate the review through a peer-review journal and conference abstracts or posters.Trial registration numberPROSPERO CRD42016041574; Pre-results.

“…Thereby, different types of honey have different medicinal value leading to different biological effects. Honey and its various compounds have shown antimicrobial effects (Oryan et al, 2007;Manyi-Loh et al, 2011;Wasiak et al, 2013), anti-inflammatory effect (Molan, 2002;Singh et al, 2011;Yaghoobi et al, 2013;Majtan, 2014), antioxidant effects (Singh et al, 2011), stimulatory effects of the immune system (Al-Waili et al, 2011;Majtan, 2014) and stimulation of tissue regeneration (Oryan and Zaker, 1998;Molan, 2002).…”

A b s t r a c t A r t i c l e I n f oThe research was undertaken to determine the possible synergistic interactions between any two antibacterial agents; Mentha pulegium essential oil (MPEO), honey and bacteriocin-like inhibitory substance (BLIS) E204 against Escherichia coli K12 and Listeria monocytogenes CECT 4032. The antibacterial activity was evaluated using the broth micro-dilution method, and the interaction was determined by the fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) indexes. The results obtained show that the BLIS E204 and MPEO possess higher antibacterial activity at low concentrations against both strains tested with the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 0.125μg/ml and 0.5v/v against L. monocytogenes respectively and of 0.125mg/ml and 0.5v/v against E. coli, respectively. However, application of the combined binary mixtures showed a partially synergistic effect between honey and MPEO against E. coli K12 and a highly synergistic effect against L. monocytogenes increasing the antibacterial activity. The combination of BLIS E204 and MPEO gave no interaction (neutral), while that between BLIS E204 and honey generated antagonism effect thereby reducing the antibacterial activity. These results suggest that the mixture of honey with MPEO at low concentrations could be a promising alternative to replace synthetic antimicrobial agents and lead to further research on natural products that could improve the antibacterial properties of honey.
