Research on the Key Technology of Burn Wound Treatment

Overview

Burns are common injuries in the daily life and wars. With the development of medical techniques, the mortality has been significantly reduced. However, the deformity and disability caused by hypertrophic scar have not been improved effectively since the wound repair technology is limited and controversial, especially on the early treatment of deep second degree burns. The prognosis of burns is of great difference. In recent years, the promotion of wound repairing technologies provides a new opportunity for improving the quality of wound healing and solving the problem of scar formation. Although some new methods and techniques have shown significant efficacy in clinic, clinical researches with large samples conducted in multiple centers are still deficient, impeding the evaluation of their superiority. Therefore, the current protocol focuses on the repair of deep second degree burns based on previous researches. There are four types of treatment protocols for wounds. Patients were divided into four groups randomly, including regular dressing change group, controlled debridement + biological dressing covering group (xenogeneic acellular dermal matrix), controlled debridement + epidermal cell cultivation group, controlled debridement + bFGF treatment group. The wound healing rate, healing time and scar formation were observed. The availability and security were evaluated. Further more, treatment guidelines and expert consensuses on deep second degree burn wounds were concluded. Above studies are important to promote the treatment of deep second degree burns to be scientific, standardized and professional in China.
