The management of the donor site after harvesting an SSG remains controversial because of a variety of dressings available for use. The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to compare the effectiveness of a polyurethane dressing, Allevyn™, t...
متن کاملThe effects of Alkanna tinctoria Tausch on split-thickness skin graft donor site management: a randomized, blinded placebo-controlled trial

Yet, there is no consensus on which dressings are best suited to treat these donor sites. OBJECTIVE To evaluate two commonly used modern wound dressings in the postoperative healing of STSG donor sites in a prospective randomized controlled ...
متن کاملSplit-thickness skin graft donor site dressing: preliminary results of a controlled, clinical comparative study of MEBO and Sofra-Tulle.
A limited clinical trial on split-thickness skin graft donor sites was conducted in 15 consecutive patients to assess the action of MEBO compared with the conventional Sofra-Tulle (Roussel Laboratories Ltd., Uxbridge, UK) split-thickness skin graft donor site dressing used in our service. All patients included in the study were white, with Fitzpatrick skin types II and III (age range, 5–65 year...

Cosmetically unacceptable pigmentation changes and hypertrophic scarring often complicate split thickness skin graft (STSG) donor sites. In fact, patients often ask about other alternatives when confronted with the need to harvest STSG, particularly because they fear additional disfigurement. Because recent evidence suggests that a moist environment promotes more optimal healing, we conducted a...
