Exploring Hyaluronic Acid as a Potential Standard Dressing for Burn Wound

A massive loss of dermis layer such as in deep burn wounds brings several important consequences and complications which contribute to major problems, personally economically, for the patients their families. Ideal wound treatment should not focus merely on removing devitalized tissue, controlling bacterial growth, promoting healing, but also accelerating healing process preventing scar-related complications. The evolution biomaterial science has provided physicians with novel dressing materials based natural synthetic polymers, latest development introduces use hyaluronic acid (HA) a potential dressing. HA been studied have involvement many phases process, inflammation, granulation, re-epithelialization. Dealing unfavorable physical properties native polymer solubility rapid degradation, modification improvement are designed produce insoluble molecules facilitate acid-based (HA-based) products valuable option burns. Our literature review shares outcome these currently available clinical experience suggests that HA-based provide safe therapeutic method useful acute burns minimize complications, although further improvements still required make an ideal product standard treatment.
