Current trends in the use of allograft skin for patients with burns and reflections on the future of skin banking in the United States

Cadaveric allograft skin can play a critical role in the care of patients with massive burns. It is difficult, however, to estimate current use and levels of enthusiasm for allograft skin in the United States. We report on a survey of 40 skin banks and 140 United States burn center medical directors...

description Cadaveric allograft skin can play a critical role in the care of patients with massive burns. It is difficult, however, to estimate current use and levels of enthusiasm for allograft skin in the United States. We report on a survey of 40 skin banks and 140 United States burn center medical directors as listed in the American Burn Association's Directory of Burn Care Resources for North America 1991-1992. Response rate was 45% for skin banks and 38% for burn directors. Overall, 12% of admitted patients were treated with allograft skin at the responding burn centers. Sixty-nine percent of burn center directors preferred to use fresh skin, although only 47% of skin banks were able to supply fresh cadaver skin. Tabulated survey results and a review and discussion of future directions in skin banking and replacement research are discussed in this paper and were presented to the Tissue Bank Special Interest group at the 1993 American Burn Association annual meeting.
