Abstract

The treatment of major burn injuries are a formidable challenge to the burn surgeon. Early aggressive surgery for deep to full thickness burn injuries is vital in the prevention of infection. The ultimate goal in major burn injuries is to prevent the onset of multi-resistant organisms and achieve early wound cover. The field of tissue engineering can help to expedite the healing of these burn wounds. The development of keratinocyte culture delivery system can be used clinically to fasten the healing process and save many lives.

Item Type:Journal
Additional Information:In conclusion, CEA’s are a valuable option in the treatment of major burn injuries. CEA’s help to expedite the healing process and minimize the length of stay of these burn patients.
