Hyperbaric oxygen improved the percentage of take in split-thickness skin grafts after thermal burns
Clinical Bottom Line: 1. The percentage of graft take was significantly higher when treatment included hyperbaric oxygenation. 2. Total or near total take was achieved in 64% of hyperbaric treated grafts.
Appraised by:Mike Bennett, Prince of Wales Hospital, Dept. of Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine Sydney; Wednesday, December 02, 19
Clinical Scenario: A patient with full-thickness burns to a limb and requiring skin grafts.
Three-part Question: In patients with full-thickness thermal burns requiring skin grafts, does the application of hyperbaric oxygen compared to normal post-graft care, result in any increased graft survival?
Search Terms: hyperbaric oxygenation, burn/thermal, skin graft.
The Study: Single-blinded randomized controlled trial with intention-to-treat. Patients with burns presenting for split thickness skin grafting.
Control group (N = 24; 24 analysed): Split-thickness skin grafting to the burn area, suitable and closed dressings of paraffin gauze, cotton wool and bandages. No sham treatment.
Experimental group (N = 24; 24 analysed): As above plus oxygen at 2ATA for 2 hours that evening and twice daily for three days.
