Abstract

Evaluate the clinical efficacy of silver-containing antimicrobial dressings on superficial burn wounds. A prospective study involving 32 patients treated for thermal burns at the Trauma and Orthopedic Surgery Department of Thong Nhat Hospital. The patients were dressed with silver-containing antimicrobial bandages, and clinical efficacy was assessed based on the local wound progression. The dressing adhered well to the wound, was easy to change, and caused minimal pain and bleeding during dressing changes. The average treatment duration was 11.2 ± 5.8 days. Only 9.4% of patients experienced wound infection. Silver-containing antimicrobial dressings are effective in the clinical management of superficial thermal burn wounds.
