Burns Dressings Resources

I am making this a separate thread and will be including many product websites simply for easy reference.

In including these site we are in no way endorsing the product they have been posted here so that those who are currently working in burns or even just those who are curious can compare what is currently available.

Silverlon

http://www.silverlon.com/

Product Comparison

Treat this site with the usual grain of salt as it is the makers of silverlon but interesting information nonetheless

http://burncare.net/compare.html

Honey and Burns

Don't faint - there is some research starting to support this and it is being used in third world countries where they cannot afford the more expensive treatments - There are two evidence based reports where it is being used in Australia and the UK.

Gwenith,
I figuring you might know and being a bit time poor at the moment I will have to wait to go though the links you provided at a later date. But just a quick one, have you heard of using hypofix on burns? Is there a reference for this? I am just trying to find the underpinning rational for doing this, any help would be greatly appreciated.
