Burn injuries are a mostly avoidable trauma that affect millions of people worldwide every year. Wound healing in burn patients is complex, and infection is one of the main clinical complications associated with wound care in burn patients. Biofilms are mostly associated with chronic wounds, but have also been identified in acute, traumatic wounds. This article shows an evaluation of a TLC-polyacrylate fibre dressing impregnated with silver to manage burn wounds of different severities, in nine patients of different ages from Vietnam. The outcomes show encouraging results in the management of burns when considering healing properties, and also management of infection, desloughing and wound healing outcomes.
