Summary

SPLIT-THICKNESS SKIN GRAFT TAKE AND MICROBIOLOGICAL EVALUATION IN BURNED PATIENTS

INTRODUCTION: Infection is cause of increased morbidity and mortality in burn patients, and its control is a major challenge also for skin graft integration. Wound and soft tissue infection rates are higher than microbiological diagnosis rates.

PURPOSE: To evaluate partial skin graft integration in relation to microbiological analysis of wounds in burn patients.

METHODS: This project will be a transversal, prospective, analytical, controlled study in humans, conducted in a single center, at Burn Care Unit of Department of Plastic Surgery at Federal University of São Paulo from October, 2010 to October, 2011. Data will be collected to characterize demographic and clinical aspects. Data analysis will be performed using Student's t-test and Friedman analysis of variance.
