[Clinical experiences using the Versajet system in burns: indications and applications]
Abstract:
Early debridement and early skin grafting are the "Gold standard" in the surgical treatment of burns. There are different debridement methods available. Concerning the treatment of burns, surgical-sharp debridement, laser ablation and hydrosurgery system are used. While in full thickness burns the sharp debridement is advisable, the Versajet shows its benefits in the treatment of partial thickness burns. Especially for debridement of difficult to treat areas - face, neck, lips, fingers, interdigital spaces, convex and concave areas the Versajet System shows its benefits. With the Versajet System, tissue excision is precise; moreover it helps to avoid the damage of viable tissue and its vascular supply.
