Burn wounds are complex injuries that are difficult to heal and are associated with high mortality rates, requiring multidirectional management including surgical activities and pharmacological treatment. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the current literature on burn wounds, covering classification, complications, medical care, and pharmacological treatment, as well as the latest innovations in dressings used for wound healing in medical practice.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), it is estimated that each year approximately 11 million people suffer from burn wounds, 180,000 of whom die because of such injuries. Regardless of the factors causing burns, these are complicated wounds that are difficult to heal and are associated with high mortality rates. Medical care of a burn patient requires a lot of commitment, experience, and multidirectional management, including surgical activities and widely understood pharmacological approaches. This paper aims to comprehensively review the current literature concerning burn wounds, including classification of burns, complications, medical care, and pharmacological treatment. We also overviewed the dressings (with an emphasis on the newest innovations in this field) that are currently used in medical practice to heal wounds.
