GlossaryBurn Wound Healing

complex process of skin and tissue repair after burn damage

Burn wound healing is the complex process by which the skin and underlying tissues repair themselves after being damaged by heat, chemicals, electricity, or radiation. This process involves several stages, including inflammation, tissue formation, and remodeling, and can be influenced by factors such as the depth and size of the burn, infection, and the patient's overall health. Effective burn wound healing often requires medical intervention to prevent complications and promote optimal recovery.
