Probiotics: A Promising Ally in Burn Treatment
This review explores the potential therapeutic benefits of probiotics in the treatment of burn injuries, with the aim of addressing the limitations of traditional therapeutic approaches. It offers a comprehensive analysis of burn pathophysiology, including a wide range of burn forms and the biological reactions they induce, such as pain, inflammation, fluid imbalance, and metabolic alterations. It also specifically explains the mechanisms by which probiotics contribute to the improved healing of wounds and modified gut microbiota, as they are particularly effective in these two directions. This study looks at the ways probiotic treatment can facilitate the regeneration of the skin, which is crucial for accelerating burn recovery . Furthermore, it examines the barriers and limits of probiotic therapy, such as strain regularity and safety issues in immunocompromised patients, while emphasizing the interdependent benefits of probiotics and nutrition in promoting burn healing. This review highlights the advantages of probiotics in burn management and their potential as an adjuvant therapy for enhancing treatment results and patient well-being in the burn care context.
