The results of an international prospective multicenter observational study are presented. Its purpose was to compare the dynamics of a wound process when using various forms of Collost medical device (gel 7%, membranes, powder) and traditional local conservative treatment with hydrocolloid dressings in children with burns of II–III degrees (ICD-10). 94 patients aged 1 to 12 years old with a mosaic thermal injury were included. The patients were divided into 3 groups depending on the type of collagen material. The fourth group (comparison group) was composed of patients with traditional local conservative management of wounds. The obtained results were compared. It was proven that the dynamics of wound area reduction and rate of its epithelization were the best when Collost collagen material was used. Collost as gel and as powder produces a special favorable effect on the course of the wound process in the presence of secondand third-degree burns.
