Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinic efficacy of gene transfected miniature pig skin as dressings to cure superficial Ⅱ degree burns of face in infants.Methods:Forty inpatients suffering from superficial Ⅱ degree face burn were included in our study.The ages of patients were 0.5 to 11 years and wound areas were 0.5% to 1.5% TBSA.A prospective randomized study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of CTLA4Ig gene transfected miniature pig skin while exposure therapy in traditional was taken as control.The healing time,scar,pain,skin graft and the rate of infection of wounds were observed.Results:The CTLA4Ig gene transfected miniature pig skin groups had less healing time,less pain and less infection rate.Conclusion:It is feasible that the CTLA4Ig gene transfected miniature pig skin is used as an effective and efficient cover to treat superficial Ⅱ degree burn wounds on face of infants.
