“…This technique is ideal for partial thickness wounds since the wound must also have sensibility and proper capillary blanching and refill. Additionally, Biobrane TM (UDL Laboratories, Rockford, IL, USA) [ 35 ], a biosynthetic substance used in burn treatment, is made of silicone film attached to a nylon matrix that has been crosslinked with porcine collagen.…”

Silicon has made its breakthrough in various industries, including clinical and biomedical applications. Silicon-based biomaterials that were fabricated into various types of scaffolds may attract interest due to their highly favorable properties covering their excellent biocompatibility, high surface area, mechanical strength, and selectivity depending on their application including film, hydrogel, nanoparticles, and so on. Silicon-based materials have also shown exciting results involving cell culture, cell growth, as well as tissue engineering. In this article, a simple review compromising the evaluation of silicon’s unique properties has been discussed and followed by the application of the silicone-based product in future perspectives in biomedical fields. The review goals are to widen and inspire broader interest in silicone-based materials in wound healing research.

Burn trauma is one of the most common causes of inpatient treatment in children and is associated with severe physical and psychological consequences. Synthetic skin substitutes are designed to reduce the risk of infection, minimize wound pain, and reduce the frequency of dressing changes. However, data regarding premature detachment of these materials is scarce. The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with early detachment and subsequent consequences for surgical treatment. A retrospective analysis of 392 children with superficial and deep partial thickness burns undergoing inpatient treatment with the application of a skin substitute (Suprathel) was performed. Patient age, wound localization and progression, as well as burned total body surface area (TBSA%) were investigated as possible risk factors for early detachment of wound dressings and surgical intervention. Premature material detachment was significantly associated with burn localization (P < .001) and correlated with burn depth progression (r = 0.23, <0.001) and patient age (r = 0.22, <0.001). Surgical revision after material detachment was required in 13% of patients. Patient age and burn localization seem to increase the risk of premature material detachment. In addition, we observed increased premature detachment of Suprathel® in areas that elicited higher wound progression rates. Identifying these areas might prove pivotal in the improvement of pediatric burn trauma management.
