Physico-chemical criteria for estimating the efficiency of burn dressings

The medical treatments of burns usually involve the use of dressings. it is well known that frequently these treatments aggravate the injury. Since the methods for the estimating the burn dressing efficiency are very complex, their performance characteristics are usually not presented in the literature. We carried out a systematic study to develop a meaningful physico-chemical method of analysis to estimate burn dressing efficiency and establish criteria for their healing potential.
