Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Burns are one of the common forms of trauma and are a cause of unintentional death and injury. Management of burns becomes complex due to multiple associated complications, for instance, secondary infection of burn wounds is the most common complication associated with burn injuries. Treatment of bacterial infections with antibiotics is becoming more challenging due to the development of multidrug-resistance. Hence, there is a critical need to investigate and establish non-antibiotic approaches to prevent colonization, control growth, and eliminate bacteria from burn wounds. Recent studies have explored the beneficial effects of open-to-air strategies on wound healing. Based on the evidence, the investigators hypothesize that bacterial load in burn wounds will be lowered when treated with an open-to-air strategy compared to the traditional closed wound approach.
