[Experimental and clinical rationale for the use of atraumatic activated carbonic dressing in the treatment of burns]. / Obosnovanie v éksperimente i klinike primeneniia atravmatichnoi aktivirovannoi uglerodnoi tkani dlia lecheniia ozhogov.

Tests for functional properties of dressing material showed that in the degree of its atraumatic effect activated carbonated cloth takes an intermediate place between hydrophilic and hydrophobic materials. Atraumatic carbonated cloth is easily wettable with blood and drug solutions but absorbs them poorly. However, it exceeds medical gauze in the amount and fine mechanism of nitrafurazone adsorption whose molecules are chemically bound on the carbon fibre. In experiments on animals with deep burn wounds covered with carbonated dressings stimulation of regeneration processes was revealed morphologically. Clinical use of carbonated dressings for burn wounds is particularly effective in the early stages of the burn disease.
