Resumen
MIRANDA ALTAMIRANO, Ariel. Dressing options in burns. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2020, vol.46, suppl.1, pp.31-38. Epub 22-Jun-2020. ISSN 1989-2055. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0376-78922020000200008.
In addition to the nature and extent of the lesions influencing infections, the type and number of microorganisms that colonize the burn wound appear to influence the future risk of invasive wound infection.
For this reason, this article discusses some of the different dressing options most frequently used in the management of burn injury, more emphatically in those used personally, considering that the appropriate knowledge of these products promote the outpatient management of patients suffering burns; dressings provide effective tools as long as they are used in an appropriate manner and time.
