Description of burn dressings

Burn dressings are special materials used to protect and promote healing of burn wounds. Their main functions include preventing infection, promoting wound healing, maintaining a moist environment, and reducing pain. Common types of burn dressings include:

1. Film dressings: Transparent, thin film-like dressings that can be applied to the surface of the wound, preventing bacterial infection from the outside and maintaining a moist environment.

2. Gauze dressings: Dressings made of fiber materials, allowing breathability. They can absorb wound exudate, prevent adhesion, and form a protective layer.

3. Burn gels: Gels with special formulas that effectively reduce pain, promote wound healing, and provide moisturizing effects.

4. Silicone dressings: Dressings made of silicone materials that can reduce scar formation, promote wound healing, and have good absorption properties.

The selection of burn dressings should be based on the degree and type of burn, and should be used and replaced according to the advice of a healthcare professional. Please consult a healthcare professional for more detailed information and advice.
