Analysis of anaerobic blood cultures in burned patients

Burns, 2007
The utility of anaerobic blood culturing is often debated in the general population, but there is limited data on the modern incidence, microbiology, and utility of obtaining routine anaerobic blood cultures for burned patients. We performed a retrospective review of the burned patients electronic medical records database for all blood cultures drawn ...

Telomere shortening in cultured autografts of patients with burns

The Lancet, 2003
In extensive third-degree burns, donor sites for conventional split thickness skin grafts are limited. In such cases, cultured epithelial (keratinocyte) grafts are prepared from small samples of the patient's own skin and expanded in tissue culture, a process that may incur very many cell divisions.

The Effects of Burn Blister Fluid on Cultured Keratinocytes

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1996
Previous studies have suggested that burn blister fluid (BBF) may be detrimental to the healing of the underlying wound bed. In this study, the effects of burn blister fluid on cultured keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation were examined and quantitated using various techniques.At three different concentrations (2%, 10%, 20% in 20% fetal ...

Use of Cultured Keratinocytes in the Treatment of Severe Burns

A 6 1/2-year-old child was admitted to the emergency ward for third degree burn injuries representing 40% of body surface. Shock therapy was first applied. After débridement and in a series of operating sessions hands were grafted with full-thickness skin and most other wounds were covered with mesh grafts.

Clinical Application of Autologous Cultured Epithelia for the Treatment of Burn Wounds and Burn Scars

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1988
This report presents our experience with autologous cultured human epithelia grafting on burn wounds, burn scars, and skin-graft donor sites in seven patients. Dispersed epidermal cells were cultured with 3T3 cells treated with mitomycin C. After 2 to 3 weeks, cultured epithelia (total 350 to 2250 cm2) were grafted to the wound. The results showed that

Positive Fungal Cultures in Burn Patients - A Multicenter Review

Journal of Burn Care & Research, 2006
Fungal infections are increasingly common in burn patients. We performed this study to determine the incidence and outcomes of fungal cultures in acutely burned patients. Members of the American Burn Association's Multicenter Trials Group were asked to review patients admitted during 2002-2003 who developed one or more cultures positive for fungal ...

[Keratinocyte culture and transplantation in burns].

Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 1995
The culture and transplantation of keratinocytes are considered an important progress in the treatment of severe burns. The keratinocyte grafts take best (50 to 90%) on remaining dermal structures after deep dermal (II b) burns. Since 1988 we culture also donor keratinocytes. They are cryopreserved in the 'skin bank' in large quantities. As vital wound
