The role of collagen gel in the management of burns
Many studies have been conducted on the use of biological dressings for burn wounds; collagen- and human amnion-based dressings are commonly used. Commercially available dry sheets based on collagen were used for the dressing. When changing their clothes, the patient may experience discomfort due to these dry sheets of collagen adhering to their skin. We are discussing our experience using topical collagen gel to treat a burn in this article. The preparation that was utilized was a gel-based preparation that contained 0.1% gentamicin sulphate and collagen of pure bovine origin, namely Type I collagen. Our research shows that this biological dressing has more benefits than downsides
