Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Mini autogenous skin graftsActive comparatorwe take the autogenous skin graft from the same patient then cut it into small pieces then we spread it over the burn wound on one limb then cover these small pieces with homogenous skin graft taken from another person.
Receives: Procedure: Mini autogenous skin graft
Autogenous skin graftActive comparatorwe take the regular autogenous one piece skin graft from the same patient and cover the burn wound on the other limb then we make a comparison between both limbs
Receives: Procedure: Mini autogenous skin graft

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The major outcome is to specify if the regular single piece autogenous skin graft is better than the new technique that uses small pieces mini autogenous skin grafts for treatment of post burn wounds in children. or vice versa?

    the spread of the small pieced autogenous skin grafts that are covered with homogenous skin graft over post burn wounds in children may give better results than the regular single pieced autogenous skin graft

    Measured: 2 years
