The development of a treatment pathway for dermal regenerative matrix (DRM)

Protocols designed for burn care by individual burn centres have played an important role in significantly improving outcomes of thermal injuries over the last decades [1 –6]. The process of standardising burn care and creating protocols within burn centres has, at its core, evidence-based practice principles combined with the clinical experiences of burn care specialists. Pathways and guidelines have led to better outcomes, in terms of reducing the overall mortali ty and morbidity, improving resuscitation, critical care, wound care and long-term functional and psychological outcomes [1,5,7].
