The Biobrane Wound Glove is a temporary biosynthetic wound dressing specifically designed for hand applications, particularly partial-thickness burn wounds of the hand.

When used in conjunction with Versajet the traditional window of use can be extended beyond 24 hours

Good adherence

A nontoxic mixture of highly purified peptides derived from porcine dermal collagen has been bonded to the nylon/silicone membrane to provide a highly flexible and conformable composite dressing with adherence properties and a hydrophilic, biocompatible surface.
Initial adherence results from the fibrin on the clean wound surface preferentially bonding to the collagen surface of the dressing.

Reduces water vapour loss

The silicone outer layer acts like a protective epidermal barrier and reduces the water loss from the wound which is essential to avoid wound desiccation

Reduces pain

The adherence reduces pain and allows patients an early free movement.
Allows some water vapour permeability which is beneficial in preventing excess fluid accumulation

Flexible

Biobrane stretches to move with the patient

Key benefits to burn wound care:

Not more expensive when compared with inexpensive and commonly used standard dressings
Transparency permits direct wound inspection
Reduces length of hospital stay for patients with superficial partial thickness burnscompared with standard care

Indications:

Superficial to mid-partial thickness burns (once debrided of non-viable tissue)
Excised burn wound with or without meshed autografts (need viable bed)
Donor sites
