Immediate excision of burn wounds. 1978

R K Finley, and S F Miller, and S Shumaker

Early excision and grafting of body burns is a safe and efficient means of treatment. It reduces hospital stay and probably reduces septic complications. A group of 41 patients were so treated at Miami Valley Hospital Burn Therapy Program. Their hospital stay was less than that of patients treated and reported to the National Institute of Burn Medicine.
