>> Thursday, August 6, 2009

Patients with deep burns, especially children, with the death rate is very high because of injuries to recover. Skin transplant surgery (death or type of contract) for the results are spectacular. This method is being implemented successfully in the National Football.

According to experts, the chub light (level 1-2) can be from within 10 days. To the extent more severe (Grade 3), can burn words but after 3 weeks to re seo. These cases are referred to as agricultural burns, can afford to re-create the skin and does not affect much the quality of life.

Cases with severe burns (level 4-5), an area of extensive damage, burn depth (can account for 40-50% of the body), all germ layers skin destruction should not have skin changes so. This impact is very serious to the patient, the risk of mortality is very high, especially with children. In this case, the pair has been assigned to help burn for protection, to avoid bacterial penetration, wounds more easily recover.

Children with burns were deep, and get the pair from the body (skin get in the good of the body to pair cover injuries) will be limited by lack of healthy skin offset. To overcome the problems "in the source pair", the National Football used type is fresh (from parents or relatives cognition) to temporarily cover the wound. This is the method many advantages: time bám pair live long (average 19 days, the maximum can be 41 to date), skin transplant regardless of the correspondence between blood groups and to receive. These conditions are very favorable for helping children can recover wounds.

Technical pair not too complicated but also require specialized requirements strict. First, physicians must take a small skin of the patient, outspread by canal to the small, creating "broken system" to cover injuries. Pieces from this body can also be generated into small pieces to cover the wound (called tem pair type messages). Closed types are covered with fresh top, like a shirt outside the protected circle. Amount of skin transplant only enough permission to get the level needed to get the skin very thin, security for the re-created, to avoid causing damage to the skin areas were taken. Skin transplant "living" is through the osmotic but not directly by raising the blood vessels. Therefore, the thin skin of the important factors to help it bám life.

The use of force is kind of fresh adult patients on the depth of burns has increased the area covered. Average 1% of adult skin cover 3.2% of injuries in children. Research shows that this technique has raised the rate of patients with deep burns, burns large area will be live on 90%. The proportion of patients with burns bacterial blood was saved reached nearly 80%. This rate is very high compared to the time the 2001 return before: only 20-30% of patients burns deep, wide be saved.
