Keratin-based products for effective wound care management in superficial and partial thickness burns injuries

• Improved burn care using a new class of keratin-based wound healing products.
• Rapid epithelialisation and minimal scarring.
• Easy to use in community-based care.
• Reduces cost for health care provider.

This n = 40 cohort study on superficial and partial thickness burns compares novel keratin-based products with the standard products used at our facility. The keratin products are found to facilitate healing with minimal scarring, be well tolerated with minimal pain and itch, be easy to use for the health professional and be cost effective for the health care provider. For these reasons they are being adopted into use at our facility.
