Delayed excision is generally at 3 weeks or later

3. Dr. Sunil Keswani, National Burns Centre, www.burns-india.com, nbcairoli@gmail.com     Within the first 3-5days After 5 days chances of Sepsis higher and bleeding more 15% of BSA is excised at a time Coverage of excised area by Meshed Homograft is mandatory

7. Dr. Sunil Keswani, National Burns Centre, www.burns-india.com, nbcairoli@gmail.com Classic benefits of allograft as a physiologic and mechanical barrier: • • • • • • Reduction in water, electrolyte and protein loss Reduction in energy requirements secondary to the attainment of a closed wound Reduction in wound infection rates Reduction in pain Conservation of autografts Improved general welfare and psychological outlook of the patient

8. Dr. Sunil Keswani, National Burns Centre, www.burns-india.com, nbcairoli@gmail.com    Reduction in the number of bacteria under a biological dressing Phagocytes within a wound use the fibrin network established between the allograft and the wound to trap and phagocytose bacteria without the production of opsonins or antibody The effects of allografts in reducing bacteria and promoting healing have proven beneficial
