Permeaderm Versus Homograft for Full-thickness Burns

Frozen Human Cadaver Allograft (FHCA) is, nowadays, the gold standard for temporary coverage of excised full-thickness burns, but is also very expensive and requires additional personnel and major storage spaces in comparison to other products. The purpose of this study is to determine the extent to which PermeaDerm® dressing promotes wound bed maturation when used as a temporary dressing for excised full-thickness burn wounds. Efficacy and safety in promoting wound bed maturation for successive autografting will be determined through direct comparison to FHCA.
