Novel silicone dressing in full thickness skin grafts – A retrospective controlled case series

The right choice of dressing after skin grafting, especially in the anatomically complex and aesthetically important head and neck area, is difficult. It is important to have a dressing which is durable and doesn't need a lot of dressing changes. This study introduces a novel, individually moul...

description The right choice of dressing after skin grafting, especially in the anatomically complex and aesthetically important head and neck area, is difficult. It is important to have a dressing which is durable and doesn't need a lot of dressing changes. This study introduces a novel, individually moulded silicon dressing; and investigates the number of dressing changes, durability of the dressing and the aesthetic outcome of patients receiving this new type of dressing, in comparison to a control group. The present retrospective single center controlled case series study reports our experiences using two different types of dressing on patients undergoing full thickness skin grafts in the head during the period 01 May 2016 to 01 May 2020. Data were analysed according to the type of dressing with either a transparent moulded silicone dressing or an established silicone sheet dressing. 52 patients were included in the study. We found no difference in the aesthetic outcome and complication rate (p > 0.05) between the two groups. The number of days until first dressing change after surgery, the number of dressing changes or follow up visits in the outpatient care until complete wound healing, and the overall number of dressing changes were all statistically significantly reduced (p
