Using a biodegradable polyurethane dermal matrix in the management of deep burn injury.
Trial Summary: The purpose of the whole research program is to evaluate the feasibility of replacing several high cost materials currently in use for burn management at the RAH (Integra, Matriderm, Biobrane/cadaver allograft for burn wound temporisation after excision) with a cost-effective, synthetic alternative. This new material has demonstrated superior efficacy in large animal studies and two pilot human trials in non-burn wounds are currently ongoing. This will represent the first stage of a proposed two-stage strategy to abolish the need for split skin grafts in burn care. The second stage is already at an advanced stage of development in-vitro and has similarly proven effective in porcine wounds.
